Frank, I'm partial to these open column marine type engines and yours is great. It sure runs nicely also. Your work is well deserving of the MOM recognition.

Frank:  Congratulations on a very fine engine and I will look forward to seeing it on the main page every time I check in to read all the new posts. 
The marine engine is a very interesting style that has intimidated me due to all the small parts and the many "must be identical" parts.
I can joyfully concede this election but feel very proud to have been nominated.
Thank You everyone that voted on all these engines.

Don,

To be truly intimidated try standing in the middle of a 12" : 1ft job, running, when somebody drops a wheel spanner on the deck plates.

Hi,

time to say:

thanks a lot for that ... (what to say now ... nothing ? no !)

support ? (maybe ok - i hope)

i'm proud to get this honor in this nice forum and i'm glad that i'm able to publish my engine.
next machine will take a little bit more time as i'm planning a new machine
(cylindrical / uncylindrical grinding)

Regards
Frank
