Can't you double check with your CAD, should be possible to simulate the 2:1 gears and turn the engine over on the screen. It will show...

Have you timed the engine, quite likely they clear if they are positioned correctly relative to when the big ends come up. EDIT Adding...

The ways stopping short of the headstock probably allow a larger dia to be machined on afaceplate so there is a plus side to it. If...

I think things have moved on for anyone starting out these days. A large number will have imported far eastern machines that really need...

Today, five weeks after my surgery, I spent half a day working in my shop. It felt wonderful!!! As Jason had pointed out in an earlier...

The cylinder covers have been completed, along with all the shafts as well. When it was assembled it seemed quite tight when the piston...

0.090" wide x 0.065" deep should do the job.

If you are just running it for display there is little need for a piston ring if the fit is right, infact if you like an engine to tick...

Pro is needed to automatically add hole call outs and to show then as threaded on a 2D drawing. You have the option of the double lines...

I use Pro as it has a few things that I tend to use like Draft for patterns. Atom should allow you do move an assembly around like that...

Hi Jason, I've ordeted the SCBCR 1010 E06-APT Lathe Turning Tool and the 0602 inserts. I only need to chip another two inserts to...

You mentioned that this engine has a barring (or starting) engine. That would be a good starting point if you can make a model of that...

You can get all the parts in an assembly to move easy enough in alibre.

That is where your problem is . He draws all these engines at different sizes and just does a mathmatical conversion but never actually...

Another useful feature which Alibre has, others may too is the ability to import an image be that a photo, patent drawing or in your...
