Holt tractor engine

[gbritnell]

The manifolds on my Holt were purchased from the seller when I bought the original drawing set. When I made my drawings I drew up the manifolds to be a fabrication from either steel or brass. The design of the originals are very curvy and almost impossible to duplicate without using CNC, drilling and plugging. When I built my 300 six engine I made the manifolds as a fabrication from steel and silver soldered the parts together. They turned out very nicely. There is a build thread on it. The bottom line is that my manifolds aren't the same curvy shape as the originals. A drawing would have to be made to copy the originals and I don't want to go there. If someone else wants to be my guest.

I am also interested in set of drawings. Will you be offering them in digital format? I use Fusion360 so it should be compatible with Autocad.

Hi Jack,
I supply them as PDF files. 8-1/2 x 11 format. I would prefer not to supply my original drawings. I do have some of the parts modeled in an early version of Solidworks that I have supplied to several fellows who want to use CNC to build it. I can do that.

I would be interested in the solidworks files as well as the pdf files. Great build. I do have a small cnc.
Thanks,
Ron

So how much for a PDF plan set?

 

[chrisscuttingz]

from what i can tell these plans are looking nice, I will be modeling this in fusion 360 so any solidworks parts will help me.
I love to model almost as much as i do machining.lol

Very pleased with the drawings, worth his price, especially after paying an unnamed British company twice as much for garbage drawings for a traction engine

I will also say "gbritnell" Holt engine drawings are very good and well worth it.
