--- Quote ---OMFG a slitting saw on a lathe is scary ! I put it away rather quick ! used a hacksaw instead..... --- End quote --- Alex, http://www.homemodelenginemachinist.com/index.php?topic=14631.0 :doh: --- Quote --- I'm waiting on some Slitting saws to try and cut my 2" square brass bar rather than Turn/Mill it all to swarf. --- End quote --- chain drilling before hacksawing may be an option. Second and third picture down. http://www.homemodelenginemachinist.com/index.php?topic=15270.msg187276#msg187276 As for the Paddleduck ...them drawings are not on my to do list.

After a few days off sick, i got back in my workshop yesterday. I now have a Block, Pistons and packing Glands to add to the other bits. The pistons still bind slightly and need a tiny bit more lapping. |

Just been reading the Build log done by Tim http://madmodder.net/index.php?topic=1525.200 I soooo need a mill. Would make life so much easier. |

This was also my first proper engine build. Doubting my ability to get success, I decided to build 2 hoping for 50% success rate. But, they both worked! There is a build log on here somewhere. Good work, keep it up. Ian |

Great start there Alex :thumbup: You are doing really well without the use of a mill, Bog's designed it so that you can build it only on the lathe if a mill is not available. That being said, having both machines (lathe and mill) is a real bonus and a real timesaver too. But you are showing us all that you can produce great results just by using what you have. I'm looking forward to watching your progress, Tim |
