It is the journey that matters, not the destination

Sometimes, it can be a long and winding road

I hope your CNC isn't an Artist Dave: Mike T has told me all about his and their unique features they like to add   ::)

Keeping my fingers and toes crossed everything comes out right.

P.S. Are you going to weigh the before and after machining weight?

The block is coming along   i still have the pumps to do, and the engine end caps.   The blocks wont be too bad, but the cam boxes are 3 hours each of spindle time..   CAM is your friend here Jo.    That big door stop of aliminum is my motivation to GET IT DONE!.   i may be back out of work with the covid lockdown coming so a good thing to keep me out of trouble.    The 32 x 24 x 4 bearings are on order too.
I may weigh before and after to see how accurate the CAM is

Looking good.    :ThumbsUp: :ThumbsUp:

It's always best to sort out the niggley little details before you cut metal, otherwise you can paint yourself into corner.
