Amatuer casts his own parts then machines an engine.

Hi,

I found this video series that may be of interest to some members.

He seems to be a fairly new to machining with limited tooling so some of his methods are a bit crude, but to give credit to him he has so far half built a large horizontal engine and he has cast all his own parts from scratch.

I forget the size of his build but it's something like 3" - 4 " bore and about 4" stroke so is quite impressive so far :-)
