I like what you have going on, David.  Also, I see you have another LTD running in the back ground.
One for moral support.  : )

PS: I wish my router was hot enough to run my Kontax Stilring engine...
It will run off the heat of my hand but my router stays at room temp...

Thanks for your kind replies Chaps! Much appreciated.  :thumbup:

Managed a little shop time today....... One more (little) step along the way...  ::)

I needed a lightweight means of discretely holding a dozen balsa wood discs in place, on a 4mm dia shaft. But not causing any extra dead space in the chamber.

Turned an alloy top hat bush,......




Thinned flange to 1.5mm......




Found it was very easy to produce the recess with a sharp 8mm endmill. Plunged, to rough out. Then manoeuvred the wood around to finish neatly.

There's no pic of neatly........




Held in place with a spot of loctite. One more little step sorted........




Temporary flywheel, next.  :scratch:
