I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again .I LOVE WEBSTARS nicely done there Gringo

Shouldn’t that be “not always right, but never wrong, thought I was once but I wasn’t”
 
Nice running engine El Gringo. I like your fuel tank & display!
I enjoyed building the Webster too.

Very nice. Love the attention to detail. Electronic ignition, counterweighted crank, and the color of the wood base goes very well with the flywheel.
 
My Webster was built a few years ago. I posted the footage on youtube.
 
What did you make your piston, and piston rings from?
Thanks
 
I forgot to put the video link. An FYI is I am a high level quadriplegic. If I can build one you can to.

The rings were made using a rear brake cylinder from a Mini, I think it was a 1968 model. The inside diameter of the bore is 19mm. Piston was aluminium bar and the crankshaft was machined from bar-stock. The crankshaft is one piece. The carburetor is the jan Ridders vapour carb/tank.
