KAISER swiss made

The original kit was made by Emidio GATTAFONI in 2004. But, Emidio is now very aged. I bought mine from him. JT-modelle make copy of this kit with authorisation of the creator if my informations are right. If JT-modelle have no more kits, I don't know who's follow it now. But the HP is also a...

Best Wishes for 2024, and good luck to all! Now I reamed the center to 9mm. this is for a centering pin, for later. Dismantling the chuck + returning to the lathe to bore the lower part and cut off. Now, I glued the body into an aluminum tube to straighten + ream the upper part. LeZap

Hi Richard, at the moment I have not removed the part from the 4 jaw chuck LZ

No so much comments. LZ

Hello, it's coming from bar stock aluminium. I've never seen castings for this engine LZ

Whit other words a "panic button" or "dead man switch" ? LeZap

Here are the parts of the safety latch. Honestly, I have no idea what this latch is for. Both are cut from solid, the latch is 10mm high and all filed by hand, it is 😭🤬😓👎 to be machined! L.Z.

Yes, I prefer bronze. Just a question, witch quality of oil need this damping cylinder? LeZap

The job of the week is the damping cylinder of the governor. Small note regarding the thread, which should have been 7/16" in 36TPI which I converted to M11x70. also look at the thread output obtained with the help of a micrometric stop (a comparator in fact) I still have to break in the parts...

I continue with the small parts of the regulator. It's difficult to talk about "machining sequence" because there is a lot of handling, changing tools and/or machines. On the other hand, there are certainly several ways to arrive safely.... The two 3/4" balls are bearing balls previously...

It's the screw on the top of the governor LZ
