Slowly my radial engine project is coming together. I am getting closer but still have several things to figure out. I have finished the crankcase and got all the holes drilled for the lifters and the spark plug wire. I cut all the copper tubing that I will need.
Painted the crankcase gray and sprayed with sealer. Once they dried, then I mounted a cylinder head to each hexagon section. I used glue and then three screws underneath. That should hold together.
Now I am adding my copper tubing and spark plug. Once I have all the heads done, then I will work to screw together the crankcase. Like I said slowly but surely and so far it is looking pretty good.
I am still trying to figure out, what I will do for the back side so that it will be able to hang from the wall. It's going to be pretty heavy once completed and then adding the propeller, I am guessing it will be close to 24 to 28 pounds. I could still be off, will see if I can weigh it.
