Great idea Brian, it will be the middle of spring here then and it can be great at that time of year.

The postman bought 2 presents for me today, my 1/4x32 tap from a local supplier and my 1.5mm slitting saw from Shanghai. I paid $6.93 including postage for the saw and included in the package was a $5 voucher for my next purchase, great will have to see what else I need.
Now I have to make a holder for the saw, then continue on with the head.
Cylinder Jacket now screwed on to crankcase. I deviated from drawing. Outer-Head will be next but next week.
Bearing Housing/Cap. Bearings bought. Will figure out how to machine Housing. The bearing fit will be tough on Gus.

Hi Gus, here is the link direct to the supplier, http://www.uxcell.com/80mm-15mm-22mm-milling-cutter-72t-slitting-saw-blade-p-339395.html
I bought mine through eBay for only $6.95 posted, I see that they are charging a higher price through their store. Check eBay, there are quite a few suppliers.
Edit: I just checked my order info, my saw has 50 teeth and is 75mm dia.

and I'm hoping that I can make the cams integral with the shaft instead of using loctite to hold the lobes on, if I do it this way, I will need to slip the cams in through the holes.
Looking at the drawings further, the cams may fit through the hole size called up on the drawing, no matter, I still achieve my purpose of making the bearing surround bigger. The instructions call up for the cam lobes to be loctited on to the shaft, this would have made it fairly permanent anyway, and the shaft with cams attached would have to be able to be removed through the existing hole. I'm still going to look at beefing the cams up a bit though.

I don't know why I need the grooves when there will be 2 pins in the spinner to drive the prop, did them anyway.
After Malcom had a prop come off the prototype while doing a demo at a show he decided to play extra safe.

Hi Jason, yes that's what the E clip is on the shaft for, I was just wondering why the driving grooves are needed when there are two pins doing the driving of the prop. Thanks for looking at my posts.
