John M Oshust | 12-Oct-07 23:30 | Using the Guillows plastic nose, I hope to cover it with Al sheeting. I toyed with making engine pistons as per Guillows plan. Trashed that idea and decide to build an engine like I did for my Camel! |

You may have to shape the rubber eraser to the diameter you need, but then touch it to the aluminum to get that spun finish. Again, great job.
