Nick, lol, I`ll be ahead of you if it works! :lol: This valve will be a miracle if it works!! :doh:
raynerd:
I thought I`d start with the valve guides. I did consider the blocks first but considering the valve guides would have to be machined with the large end towards the tailstock, I wouldn`t be able to check for a good fit in the block anyway, so thought I`d start with these!!
This was a tricky little task, very small with quite a bit of detail! I did what I thought was the best order of machining and ended up with them complete and just requiring parting off to size on the end of the rod!!
j45on:
Wow nice job on those Chris :bugeye: they are tiny
saw:
Amazing, you rock :bugeye:
dbvandy:
They look GREAT! I had some bronze bolts that I used for mine.
I remember when I was doing the guides and valves for the Otto that I was amazed at how large they were after doing the ones for the Webster.
If you use a numbered drill to check the exact size of the guide hole and make the stem of the valve to match, it should work perfectly!
Do you plan on winding your own springs?
