Dave,
Wow, beautiful work, awesome.
Watching your work makes me realize that I haven't even graduated day school yet.

Many, many thanks for the kind words, but it's not just me - Dennis has been doing amazing work on these castings too

Btw Gus, congrats on the Wyvernish too!

Dave, I have to agree with you on Dennis' work, I've been mainly watching your work. Probably because I'm trying hard not to want to start casting. I dabbled in casting long time ago in my silversmith period, pretty neat stuff. It would open a lot of new avenues, but I'm still struggling trying to learn machine work.

Thanks for the congrats, for a while I thought my dragon was going to turn on me.

And another face pulled in to size, plus the first holes - the 12 M3.5 for mounting the crosshead wear plates and guide bars.
I know I'm repeating myself, but this casting is a pure pleasure to machine ;D

Next job getting the lower face drilled & tapped, then I can get studs made and go for a trial fitting...
