    The aluminium casting block is aways a problem, because there is no flat side And you need to check to have, at mins, two faces flat and square at 90° Boring is also a challenging job, because it's a long bore with vibration risks for the tool. There is an idea of tooling made from 20mm...

    Machining a miniature 4-cylinder Crankshaft.

    (Ph 1 3) Then draw the six centers of the three virtual axes of the crankshaft, the master and the two axes of the connecting rod. Personally, I used my DRO for maximum accuracy, but a carefully tracing with a gauge is just as good. Note that, at this level any error of one tenth of a...

    Machining a miniature 4-cylinder Crankshaft.

    As in my previous guide on machining a V12 crankshaft, I present the steps to build a 4-cylinder crankshaft fit for in-line four-cylinder engine. The method presented corresponds to my machine tool set and can therefore differ from one person to another. This method is not the only one, but it...

    @ aerofourcycle. Yes, two time cast iron together and result is exceptional Don't forget that my target is to have a slow rpm engine, and is will be better with "heavy" piston. But by the way, compression is very good with less leak between piston-piston ring and cylinder @Demaic: ik heb geen...
