Hello,
I've lurked on this forum for long enough, I thought it was time I posted.
I have a Sherline lathe and milling machine with CNC rotary table. I also have a few vintage bench drills and a 8mm watchmakers lathe.
What I don't have is a workshop. We live in a flat and everything is stored on bookshelves or in wooden boxes and gets taken out whenever the (very sturdy) kitchen table is free. This limits me a bit as it has also become a home office during the crisis and we have to eat off it occasionally!
For the last few months I have been making a 1:12 scale Cosworth V8 DFV Formula 1 engine. It will be a 2-stroke running on air (or CO2?) with a bore of 7.2mm and a stroke of 5mm.
I have posted a bit of a build log on the Model Engineer Forum so some of you may have seen this before. As soon as I work out how to use a photo hosting site, I will repeat it on here. I think this forum is a bit more specific to my project.
Cheers
Steve
