Hi Andrew,

Roger has already replaced the casting, but I'm thinking along the lines of using the repaired case and building the glow version with the other. In my profession I get to see allot of casting oopses, getting a new head or block ready for production can be a tremendous challenge.

Cylinders, I shouldn't have posted that shot. The right end of the piece has the groove below the bottom fin cut too deep, the other end was nervana until I realized I'd made it .045 too short, which by the way just happens to be the thickness of the cuttoff blade, bet you know this one, I think everyone ever cutting fins has done that.

Dan,

I never thought of it as art, but it is one of the ways I express myself to be sure. I get great enjoyment from building models, engines and motorcycles.
