I have just finished a Rider Ericsson engine form the casting kit by Myers Model engines.
I bought this kit several years ago, before I retired. When I came home from Cabin Fever in January I decided it was time to build a model, so I dug out the kit and started. For the past 2 or 3 years it seems like all I have been doing is building and tinkering with CNC machines.
I did use my CNC mill on several of the parts, and I made all the hex bolts on my CNC lathe. I have since sold the lathe, and will start on another one when I get back form NAMES.
Here is a video of the first run.

I will be writing up a more detailed build article on my web page, and I'll have the engine at NAMES next week. plsntcov.8m.com
