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!

John, great work. The motor looks incredible. One thing I've played with to get the engine turned finish is to use an electric eraser. 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.

CW...A Stainless Dremel brush works great, I have already tested it. I have used the eraser and grinding compound on gun parts...it works also!
