--- Quote from: andyf on October 16, 2012, 02:13:28 PM ---m-machine are advertising a new plastic with a great fanfare. They say it works OK for piston rings; I wonder if it would be stable enough for a complete piston. It's on this page: http://www.m-machine-metals.co.uk/mm/website/metals_menu.html Andy --- End quote --- I think its similar to PEEK , I use that stuff for the polo mint type rings on piston valve bodies Stuart |

Nice work David ... looks like it's flying over in the pic! I noticed that material too but never thought of using it for a piston. Might get hold of some and see what it's like considering they are only about 6 miles away from me! |

Nice work the engine is running nice and fine :bow: :bow: |

Thank you Benni! :beer: When I first saw this engine, with it's large flywheel, it reminded me of a hit n miss engine. Which needs a pair of wheels...... I've now chopped rather a lot of ali from the castings. With red spokes, would this look ok? Or, are they a little on the large side? David D |
