Very very cool.

For a non-machinist its really neat to see the different techniques used to achieve things with the machines you have. For the old school machinists Im sure some of this is stuff that is common sense.. but things like this open my eyes every time I see them.
Thanks for the cool post!

(Very cool method for the valve reliefs)

Spin,

I think John has done a very good job here of showing the 'old school' method of machining.

Getting the job done with limited resources.

Nowadays, it seems to be, 'this job will have to wait until I get the right thingybob or whatnot'.

If you can use your imagination, impossible things can be made using improbable solutions.

Darren:

Unfortunately the pics are missing as I have swapped ISP's and haven't uploaded all that was there before.
