Longboy deserves at least one reply. He did a build log and posted a video

Nice engine

You are quite correct Pete.

I must have missed the post because of my 'downtime', but it certainly deserves good recognition, as this is what the site started off as, own designed engines made from barstock.

I'm just going over to the link and give it a karma point.

That does run extremely well...and quite slow!

That tells me it was built accurately. Well Done Longboy!

How in the H)@# did I miss this? Seems that makes two engines I've missed recently!

My appologies Longboy....and some Karma from me!

Thanks fellow hobbyists and moderators for recognising the novices and our table top machine tools in creating these builds. I hope you have found this winters engine, my "Gemini" twin too.........or else! Dave.

Like some of the others I must admit somehow I missed this one but I will say now that it deserves recognition. You have a fine running engine there. When you can get them to run that slow everything is built right.
