If you look closely you will see gaps between the parts. The problem with kits in too many pieces is the space they take up on the machine and the cleaning effort. That's why I like to print the block with heads and covers on. Ah, closer look revealed the small gaps. That makes it much easier to paint the engine.

alan barton Posted February 21, 2020 Share Posted February 21, 2020 Wow, if this is the future of modelling then sign me up! That is a stellar effort. Like Cluade said, would make an awesome Bonneville powerplant. 21st century Chrisman coupe, anyone? Would you be able to estimate the amount of hours you spent producing the drawings. I was an old school t-square and set- square kinda drafstman in a former life and I am curious - I can see hundreds of hours here. The results are definitely worth it!!!

mad mike Posted March 5, 2020 Author Share Posted March 5, 2020 Hello everyone, the first small batch of Boss engines is on its way to the Model Builder's Warehouse. Would be great if you got yourself one and present the build here on the forum! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
