Chris---Couple of questions for you.-- What material did you make the cylinder block from, what did you make the liner from, and what was the outside diameter of the liner you used? It looks to me like the maximum diameter you could go to on the liner would be 1 1/4" or you would be into the threaded holes to attach the small diameter end-cap on the non rod side. This would only leave a 1/16" wall thickness on the liner---unless you went to a larger size end-cap with larger bolt pattern on the non rod end of the cylinder. This is all assuming that your cylinder had a 1 1/8" bore same as the MEM Corliss.
the same as originally designed on the MEM website.
