It's had 850 views so far, Stew, so there's plenty of interest.
It's just that our minds are so boggled  :bugeye: that we don't know what to say!

A little more done today.

The plug only goes into the exhoust 5mm, I wanted to fit it first as the long air ways will cut into it. To drill the air way I used a 4mm long series drill.



Long series drill along side a standard jobber drill.

Clamp to angle plate centre drill and then drill part way with the jobber and finishe to depth with the long series clearing the chips as you go so that it doesn't jamb or break. I also ground one land of the long series drill long so that it would drill big so if it did break i would have a fitting chance of getting it out.

Rest assured Stew we are watching and paying attention. Where else could I get good little tips like this to make things a bit easier. I continue to watch, read and learn Stew.

Cheers  :beer:

Thanks Guys

I've gone through a period of self doubt with this one, will it work have I made this bit correct etc etc but I'm at the stage where I can do nothing but "Keep Calm and Carry On"

No particular scale Rob but it will look like the smaller sized Dake Engines that they used on pully blocks.
