Hi Ray

Nice job so far. I haven't built an engine from castings yet, so I don't have comments. However, I can say there are many ways to skin a cat...

Nice work Ray, showing what can be done on a very small machine too.

I haven't built an engine from castings yet either but it's on the long list of projects.

Chris, I've done that again this year, promise myself I'll finish things by christmas but it just isn't happening at the moment!
