Posted by Simon Chaddock on 29/04/2020 00:10:14: My most complex print so far. A 'spare' ASh-62 and bulkhead mount for my AN 2. It follows my usual 'lots of bits glued together' approach in fact there are 73 individual pieces just to make up the 9 cylinder radial. It is also self coloured, the parts being printed in silver or black filament as appropriate. Intended to replace the slightly simpler version current installed in the AN 2 if and when it got damaged but so far that hasn't happene thats a fair bit of crafting there Simon, very nice too .. how long in total print time did you commit to it ? I'm also working on an exact copy of the Szekely SR3, so much time spent converting images into drawings into parts.. I can't seem to be able to get any good 3 views or technical drawingsof it to work from. Using Lockdown to help develop a better set of skills in both 3d software and 2d cad.. I'm enjoying working in virtual (3d and 2d) as I dont have an infinite supply of modelling materials. Edited By Pete Crosby on 29/04/2020 11:16:40

Well a bit further on today with my dummy engine, still have one more cylinder to add, made the spark plugs and exhaust from Aluminum, its not a true engine just a scale representation of a 3 cylinder generic engine.

Here is my small workshop/shed,. I keep models seperate in the house (no room in shed). Not as big as a lot of others but good things come from small spaces... I make, break mend and otherwise mess about in here ...
