The lathe was build in 1954 It is not a milling attachement , its a part of the lathe you see , picture was taken inside the van Greetings Jef

Bought myself a new (barely used) toy "The little John" :D:D:D

Through my work I am now working with Inventor , but in the early days I used graphic works 3.0 , a very easy to understand program , this was still in the time of windows 3.11 and 95, but I don't know if this is still available Regards Jef

Congratulations , well done sir :thumbup: Regards Jef

If you want , I can provide a crankcase for the Nova , I have made my own castings for it . Most of my materials I order in the Netherlands , it is a changing stock according to whether he can buy of rest pieces , good services , never got a problem , https://www.borenexpress.nl/

Nice work Gerard :thumbup: I use always 42CrMo4 steel for my crankshafts Why do you take the crankshaft out of the chuck and put it back in again ? Here's some pictures of the crankshaft for mine Nova 1 ( a Dutch desing from I.J.v.Leeuwen during WW2 in 1943)

Nicely built, I'm also making a few Mills ( among other things ) of my own castings , if any one is interested I can deliver castings for the Mills mk1 and Nova 1 The finished engine's are built by a friend of me , he has got more time than me , he is retired :D Regards Jef

Thanks Bengt , I use most of the time 42CrMo4 for crancshaft and cilinders (for 2 stroke petrol and diesel engines) Regards Jef

Very nice casting and work ! What kind of steel do you use for camshaft and cranckshaft ? Regards Jef

This will work better, but the booster port opens at most engines at the same time with the side ports or something later, not earlier . Regards Jef

I don't think it will work well with the transfer ports and exhaust ports on the same side , the flow will be disturbed I think :confused: Regards Jef

Nicely built, I also use sometimes a back stop, but it's something more primitive than yours, on the pictures you can see how I do it Regards Jef

Diffirent flow's

This is the timing that I use on my motor, you can make the exhaust port with a bar in the middle if your worried about the width . Regards Jef
