Hello everyone, It has been a long while since I've posted anything on the forum. Just didn't think it important. This forum has really grown. So much so I didn't even know where to post this note. I've gotten into clock making and have been making tools for that endeavor. Being disabled and...

Hello guys, Wow, how this group has grown. Looking through the posts, I see we have some great chippers out there. With that in mind, I've come up with a problem I can't figure out. I'm in the process of making a spring winder from plans I got from Model Engine Builder and one of the pieces had...

Well done guys, It gives me something to look forward too. :bow: :bow: :bow:

I've got to say, I had a great time getting to meet you guys and spending some time with you. It was magnificantly balanced, educational, light hearted, friendly and that's exactly what I was hoping for. It was neat to get to see Pauls engines up close and personal. After lunch, we went back to...

The very first drawing, I thought, was a photo of your Rod, not a pencil drawing. In other words, I thought your other hobby was building Hot Rods (my weakness), and you had a photo to of your rod to show us. Once I saw the other renderings, I realized they were pencil Drawings. I too love to...

Okay guys, I got a call from a gentelman in Inverness who would like to meet with us but feels it's too far a trip to Lakeland. How would you guys like to meet in Inverness? Ren

Excellent Jim, so am I. Ren

Well Jim, I sure wish some old timers could make it, guys who've been there and done that. If not, we'll figure it out and still make a time of it, I'm sure..... Be well, Ren

Dang, I hope it's okay to post this here, just didn't know where else to post this too... I had posted a while back on the FAME group to see if there were any clubs for the newcomer to get involved in in the Central Florida area and to do what clubs do. At anyrate I got some responses and...

Hey, hey George, Congratulations on omaking one beautifull, butt kickin' engine. May I someday know what you've forgotten.... :bow: :bow: :bow: Ren

Hah, I love it. Post a question....get an answer. Thank you , thank you , thank you. I have music wire here in the house I could use, just didn't know I could use it for this application. Also Dowel pins are a doable option as there is an "ol timey" hardware store in town where I got some 1/4'...

Hello again, I'm looking at the wrist pin I have to make and it's dimensioned at .094" and made from drill rod. The peice is to be hardened and polished...should I get some 3/32" drill rod or go with a #40 or #41 peice of rod? I feel like a putz not knowing, but I don't know, so any reply will...

Well, Looking through other posts on this wonderful sight I saw mention of Enco. Now it's not that I don't like your advise, I truly do, but here in Florida, most of what you find is those roll out type of windows. So with that I'll order a 12" stick of CI from Enco and keep my eyes open at the...

Hi guys, Well, I've decided to go for the gusto and attempt to make an NGEZ-1. Getting the materials for it and would like a good source for the class 40 Cast Iron needed for the cylinder liner. I'll be using 2024 T351 for the crankcase and cylinder head and have ordered it from Online Metals...

Welcome Jim, I'm in Lakeland, Fl. Where are you. A couple of us in Central Florida are trying to set up a place to meet and swap ideas. Might you be interested? Ren
