| Yes, love the paint....may I ask what you used for engine cylinders? |
| Barnstormer | 15-Oct-07 21:01 |
| John, The cylinders are 1/2 in thredded pipe purchased at the local home improvment store in the lighting section. I believe you used similar material on "THE CAMEL" it was the inspireation for this build. Dont think I'll come close to level of detail you acheive, but I hope to get there some day. |

| I thought they looked familiar. Keep an eye out for threaded PVC drill rod. I know someone sells it and it would make great cylinders but drastically cut the mass/ |

| My thoughts exactly I spent a week looking for threaded PVC and I know someone makes it, just couldn't find it, and I was anxsious to get going so metal pipe it was. |

| Great minds think alike...My quest exactly. I know I saw it somewhere but could not remember....then I am an old fart! |

| Where would the world be without old farts? |

| The air would be less aromatic! |

| Well, OK if you have to reveal the truth. |
