As the title says its plans for Diesel head for a Webra Speed 61 RCPlans Made By Me Use them for your own personal use And most importantly Have Fun building it! let me know how it turned out for you. Thanks Greg

hey mate! I only started occasionally using a lathe about two years ago until I got my own lathe, a 1956 Myford ML7 at the end of last year (and finished my first engine the webster ;) then too) Being currently 15 and living in Australia metric is the standard. but having a Myford lathe meant...

Hello again, fellow machinists Currently I am looking for plans for C. Starnes "monoblock" 3.5cc diesel from Model Maker September 1961. Thanks Greg p.s here are some photos of them

hi scrap wEc1 to the forum!

What I was trying to point out is that they really really hold onto their value! comparing your relatively new super 7 long bed big bore to what new MyFord super 7 would cost ($10,653 USD £8,150) I think your lathe at $10,800 is a very fair price for what you are getting :thumbup:

hi peter I recently got a 1956 ml7 in superb condition with a milling attachment and all the standard stuff (face plate 3 jaw 4 jaw chuck etc) and a heck load of tools and a stand for $1800 AU ! in other words, $1380 freedom bucks ($US)

I believe it is called operator error with my ignition!

Hello the Hmem community I would like to show you My mid 1956 Myford Ml7 it came with a load of spare parts, a milling attachment, it has a clutch, a dial indicator, lots and lots of tooling (carbide and hss), all the original manuals, all the change gears (metric and imperial) and a whole...

Hello to the HMEM Community! After (the big G in the sky;)) knows how long. I am proud to say that my webster runs! now i bet you guys are wondering why did it take so long: lets start from the beginning, (no not Genesis!;)) One of the 2 problems was that my crankshaft kept on falling...

Thank you raspii All jokes aside I am extremely proud of what I have achieved! I have had a couple of pops out of it! I have just put new rings in it the old ones had a load of blowby I will certainly post a video of it when it does run! Greg

Hello HMEM for those who don't know I am Greg and I am 14 years old I have been making this webster model 4 stroke engine for about a year, due to not having a lathe (mine is on the way!! I'll give you a hint: it is grey.) I had to use school's Hercus 260 (which hadn't been used in 10...

thank you very much, I shall have a look there :thumbup:

yes, a Hercus is a south bend copy. But later on they improved the 9' and made the 260

Yes I have had my eye on that one since it got posted I'm going to put a bid in towards the end But thank you for keeping an eye out for me!:thumbup: Greg

Yes, I have thought about asking school, Hopper. I know that they are very impressed with my work (I have had the principal come and take me out of class to talk to me about my engine) just I don't know how to go about it. They have 2 Hercus 260s with ALL of the accessories steady 4 jaw chucks...

hi Rod, Bazmak, Adrian and Peter My question is what would be the advantage of buying the al250 over a Hercus 260? or a Hercus 9' model A? Just from previous things that I have been told by other members of my model airplane club is that I shouldn't go with newer stuff and that I should go...
