That's the one Dave.
I've had this one a few years and it is well up to the job. I put mine in the lathe chuck and drive it from that, but you can use it with an electric drill, but keep the speed down a bit.
Once you first get it, you will go cross eyed trying to figure how everything goes together, but once you have the knack, dead easy.

Hi John
Oh Bu99er .... I have one from Polly, about 7/8" to 1 1/8" or so ... it was about the same price as that complete kit cost, ( as indeed, you said ... :(
So I assumed the kit wern't up to snuff ...
Grrrrrr ....

Bogstandard:
I nearly did the same as you Dave, but I did a good comparison first, as I had already seen the Polly one.
You win some.........

Hi John, very good explanation of the honing and lapping process, and a good display of the tools as well. That engine should start right up from the get go, and run pretty much full speed and power from the beginning. It is awfully hard to get a good picture of the bore of a cylinder that shows the quality of the finish and the bore. :beer: cheers, jack
