This is my projects so far.

Hi, Taking a little break to post this progress.

Today I started working on the air inlet holes, drilled to 1/8" dia. then CB 1/4"dia. this will be to recieve the flange that will be screwed onto the bottom of this workpiece.

Now drill and tap 2-56 screws to hold a flange in place over each air inlet hole.

Turn it 180* so the top is at the top, and using a #1 center drill as an endmill I milled out the slots for cooling fins.

Now turned it 60* so as to use my small carbide burr, to mill a out material at the base that makes the base look like a inside "V" shape profile.

Roundover the upper side of the top, and chamfer the lower side of the top of the workpiece.

This much done so far.
Next work on the middle section.

Hello,

Here I am Profiling the back side, and then cutting it away from the parent stock, then drilling the main air inlet passage which connects the 2 air inlet holes at the bottom side together.
This main passage will then be plugged up later.

Still more end profile milling, as well as other things to be added to this workpiece before it's ready to be integrated to the main engine.

I'll work on that this weekend.

Hello,

I fabricated the air distributors, for the left and right bank of cylinders.

This is the front one, that feeds the right side of cylinders,

this is the back one for the left side of cylinders.

here is the engine so far showing the cylinders with the air tubes attached,

Now time to make a flywheel,

That's all for now...

Thankyou..
