I can't remember, but I modeled everything in Creo (ProE) and made a few changes along the way, as you can see.

Thanks all. Next I have to think about how I’m going to finish it. I’m thinking of painting the main body and polishing the stainless parts and some of the brass. I’ll black anodized the bottom aluminum plate. Maybe mount the whole thing on a nice wood base. I think this engine deserves a case cover too.

That my friend is a beautiful engine. Not that it needs anything, but if you desired a little polish here and there. I just love the look of the metal the way it sits!

The thing is, If you don't protect the brass some way, it will eventually tarnish into something ugly! I wish there was a really effective clear coat for brass.
