Very Cool! When all is said and done you have to do a Sound video.

 

[Tom TG]

Truckd I will video first start and many more when I get there.
I have been working on the heads ,fin lay out and cutting them its hard to make that first cut because there is no turning back if I don't like the way it looks I have to start from scratch and make another head, so I put a felt tip pin in the spindle and laid it out first. Here are some pictures.

I'd hoped you had or could access a good rotary table for the vertical fin cuts. Nicely done, along with the attractive machining of the valve train. Turning out to be a beautiful piece of period work.
