I think that these pictures are the same as you received last year - so I
will not forward them - unbelievably HUGE! How about the 14-cylinder
one as the next Jesse Engine Model?!
I have completed the basis little lathe, with the construction of a
headstock 'lid' with a 'fence' around it, to hold small tools. I have
stripped it down and applied the priming coat.
My metalbasher friend has the cardboard template for the change-wheel cover.
Over the weekend we awoke to light snow and a temperature of zero
Centigrade - today is bright and sunny but COLD!
Keep well.
Cheers! Hubert
