Hello! Here are some more photos of my progress. The heads are almost finished. It is only missing to drill the running holes on the valve cages. Valve cages are finished Pressing in the valve cages into the holes I decided to advance on those parts that demand milling machining so, I...

hello to all! Little more progress. I have worked on the Cylinder heads, Timing Cover and Water Pump. After machining the head to the finish dimentions, I remade the grooves to get a better appearance. Locating the edge I used a 16mm flat end mill to make the recess for the combustion...

Hello Michael! Very nice work. Congratulations! I'm also building the same engine, however I'm following the drawings revised by Steve Hucks. There are some differences of some parts due to modifications that Steve provided on the project. My thread is...

Hi Atikinson! Yes, I think you will be able to machine the block. The only more dificult part is the cylinder bores but, with a little patience you get there. Go ahead and just start that. You can count on me if you think I could help. Good luck! Edi

Hello Atkinson! I think your equipment can do the job without a problem. Do you have the castings? Edi

Hello Ron! It is amazing what you did. Congratulations! Where did you get the reference to create those scenarios? It is impressive the reality of those images. It really represents the interior of Brazil on the sixties and seventies, very good work. I'm impressed. Edi

Well come from Brazil Karl I'm sure you will have a loto of joy here. If I can help, you can count on me. Don't forget, people here like Photos;):D Edi

Gordon, I recommend you spend more time with the Fusion360, I think it will give what you need. It is free for Hobbysts Edi

Hi guys! I think that motor is not Step motor given that regular Step motors does not have an encoder. To my knowledge it is a Step Servo motor also known as Hybrid motor or Easy Servo. Compared to Step motor, the Step Servo is more accurate (does not loose steps), has more torque and is more...

Thank you Brian! Compared to your work, I am still an apprentice.;) Edi

Hi to all! More work done, this time on the Bellhousing Turning the inside diameter. I have used a four self centering juck Here I'm machining a light pass between the tabs to give it more uniformity. I moved the juck by hand back forth using a 3mm end mill on the small grinder adapted on the...

Thanks Michael and Bengt for the kind words. I have managed to get some more progress on the PeeWee. I cut the water jackets, the Bellhousing adapter and the Bellhousing cast Indicating the cylinder hole to find the center Using a 16mm x 6mm key cutter, the water jackets was cut. I did not...

Hello to all there! I managed to get some more work done on the PeeWee V4 Following the instructions from Steve, I inserted a 13mm (I'm using metric) rod on the crankshaft hole then I found the center of the cylinder bank and marked 6.5mm each side. Using a square I aligned the side of the rod...

This is my first engine ever! It is a 4 cilinder inline project from Kelly (Burleigh Machine) Here is the link for the building thread. https://www.homemodelenginemachinist.com/threads/building-of-tiny-inline-4-in-brazil.17438/ Thanks, Edi

Congratulation Sbdtasos! Wonderful project it sounds really nice. Edi

Hi to all! Thank you Bengt, John and Natale. I did some more work on the block this weekend, I will post it during this week. I think I will be able to finish this building faster then the Tiny Inline 4. I have more time available then the previous Project Tks, Edi

More progress on the PeeWee block After drilling the holes with a 14.5mm drill bit, I used a 12mm end mill to start the idller gear pocket Using the boring head, I finished the crankshaft, camshaft holes and idller gear pocket Next I drilled and tapped the holes for the timing cover and...

More work done on the block. Clamped the block on the vise and faced the front of the block leaving 0.2mm for further finishing Turned the block up and machined the rear surface Next I clamped the block on a square devise with the front of the block facing up I used the parallel on...

Hi to all! Some more work done on the PeeWee. That is the block turn. I clamped down the block to the table flat on the bottom and just touched the peak of the cylinder banks with skim cut. The distributor boss was just cleaned up for the scribe line The block was then rotated bottom up and...

Hello to all! After finishing the Tiny 4 Inline from Kelly, it was a time to start a new project. I have decided for the PeeWee from Bob Shores, it is 4 cylinders in a "V" configuration. I have purchased the casting kit a couple years ago from Dirk Tollenaar With the drawings I got a revised...
