    Working on the reciprocating assembly. Now I have to somehow cut the centre part of the shaft as it goes through the crank.

    A bit of a mockup. It ended up about 1.5 times as big as the one I had measured. I have lost the measurements and eyeballed it.

    Built in the hole by adding concentric pieces of tubing until the desired diameter was achieved. Since I didn't have the first diameter tubing I had to turn another one down on the lathe. That was fun. Then added a Wire to fill in the taper on the outer rim and added a flat piece to finish it.

    Worked at detailing the cylinder head. Sometimes rocker arms are born of suspension parts.

    Added some 1/2 round strips to round off the flywheel spokes. Changed to renshape from the maple as it was too hard.

    Good morning Mr.Ambrose. I see the Diorama section has been split in two workbench-underglass forums. Am I correct to assume that mine which has been an ongoing ever evolving thing should stay in the workbench area?

    The thread spool will supply the flywheels, a baby's crib post will donate the water tank, a dragster gas tank will turn into the cylinder head (pun intended) and the watch & clock parts bin will donate some gears.

    I have no idea. However I had read about Ford having his own forest. A friend of mine had restored a 39 around 25 years ago. I remember seeing all the pieces around his shop, all rotten and weathered. I can't find the one I had of it completed. In any case I had you like it.

    Thank you, actually, a truly stock finish would have light frames over dark panels. However I used what I had.?
