Vohelpe -(wilson) made them myself.......thanks for looking. tim Thanks Mike for also checking it out............hopefully sooner than later. cheers Hi Charlie, I won't bother everyone one what's been going on. I'm as disappointed at my complete lack of progress at this date. My hand surgeries were postponed for a month (mid-Feb now) because of some back issue that blew up on me. Appreciate your thoughts and I'm determined to at least get back for a few hours a week to keep the mojo going..........came too far on this build to just stop right now. cheers to you as well! tim

It's been a while since I've checked in Daniel, nice to see the progress you've made. cheers, tim -
It IS nice to see you back on this build Dave. The new bits are gorgeous (of course) and I love in your stacked tray for the coil etc. Picked up that little detail on your Braille battery tray and securing the cables to it. Nice. I still can't believe how far you've come with that body that you had to work with. It's looking pretty sharp now........far cry from what it was. Congrats! cheers, tim

Mark, Santa has come and gone but your build did not arrive down my chimney. I'm going to blame on the "bomb cyclone" and the delay in mail..........I'm sure it's going to show up soon though. btw, simply superb & sublime build. I'll be looking for the final pics soon and hope you had a Merry Christmas too. cheers, tim

Something a little different from my usual builds & work. I can't do much at the bench right now even though I'm anxious to get back to it in earnest. My daughter has a school project that she is doing on the Wright Brothers. Their prime competitor at the time was Samuel Langley. He used an engine originally developed by a Mr. Balzer but it needed further development and he hired a Mr. Manly to take it to the next level. Anyways, the Wright engine was good for 12hp whereas this radial was eventually good (in 1903) for 54hp. Back in the day that was a huge contrast. So I took a week to machine the basic Balzer prototype and it was FUN! It's close to accurate but I wasn't being a stickler on it. It would have looked cooler with cooling fins but they didn't add those until the final version of the engine was complete. Surgery btw is Jan. on both wrists for carpal so again, I made this one kind of quick..........Less than 2 weeks from start to finish. Hope you like it. Cheers, Tim The book cover above was a from a great book on the subject that I bought from the Smithsonian btw.
