cylinder block update

these patterns and castings are seriously expensive and I am conscious at all times about how expensive a mistake will be, with this in mind I have decided to 3d print some of the more complex and costly parts, hopefully to catch any issues before they become either embarrassing or expensive or both

I got a good deal on this Nibbler reciprocating machine (similar to a Pullmax) a couple months ago. I haven't had a way to move it into my shop because it weighs about 1200lbs and that's more than my tractor can lift.
I borrowed a neighbour's skid steer today and finally got it off my trailer.
This machine can be used to make profiles, cut metal, dish, shrink, stretch, make louvers, punch, all kinds of things, once I learn how to use it. It can handle up to 1/4" thick steel.
I have no idea if I will be able to put it to work but I can't stand to see old machinery scrapped. If I can't use it then I'll pass it on to someone who can.

E engine work

I have recorded a number of videos to show ( hopefully) how small errors all add up into big ones, one of the photos shows how the over boring has forced the copper gasket up the bore, and I hope the others are informative

I found this quarter page ad in the July 17, 1915 edition of Automobile Digest and Register. Don't ask me what I was doing there. Anyhow, I hadn't heard of this early V8 and naturally Wikipedia doesn't mention it. It was able to climb one of San Fran's steeper streets in high (supposedly). The price looks cheap. Too bad it was around only for two years. Anyone seen one?
