Started to cut metal on this engine, first job cut the cylinder out of a chunk of brass and square it up Next using my new digital height gauge from Santa mark it out and light centre pop the lines. Then in the mill with a wobbler find the edge of the lump and bring the mill onto its centre, and set the vice stop. Then working to the marked lines chew out the edge to start forming what will be the port face flip it over and do the same on the other edge. Turn it on its end a chew out the end edge, flip it over and do the other end Sit it level on parallels check that we are still on centre, and drill a couple of 13mm on holes on the what will be the centre for the cylinder. I was getting a bit cold at this point so went in for a warm, I'll pick it up again tomorrow. Any one who would like a copy of the drawing just send me a PM with your email adress on. Stew |
