Still working on the number 5 engine but the plans come in today for the number 1. Also a nice letter from Mr. Hasbrouck. I scanned the letter and posted it....
Added some more pictures of the crank parts that I got make today. Tomorrow going to try and make some shafts and get it put together by this weekend.....Gene ...
Gene, Thanks for typing the letter, the posting was hard to read. Mr. HasBrouck attached a short letter to my engine plans, answering a question I had asked...
Folks: Now that we have Ray HasBrouck's blessings, do you folks think we should now list the group in Yahoo's Directory and maybe also let the folks in other...

Hi Cletus, That does sound a little high for the CRS here. Not sure what the going rate there is. I have all most got item C done, all I like is the two say...
Hi Gene: Well, That's exactly what I was thinking too. The Lenox dealer welds my blades for free, but... he is 34-miles away so that will be three trips there....
Gene, I have heard that a lot of people silver solder their blades. You would need to make a jig to hold the blade straight. Perhaps you can find the method ...
Rich, I should have did this to start with so ever one knows what I am talking about. I uploaded a picture of Item C. There ever one can see what I am talking...
Gene, Thank you for posting the drawing. I should just order the plans for Eng. # 5 so I can keep up with your progress. The problem is that plans sets are ...
Plans are like books, If you have a whole book case full people with think how smart you are. They don't have to know you don't read them......Gene ... ...
Gene, Here's a crazy idea. Bolt your band-saw blade together after passing it through the hole .......put the join on the back side of the run. .......devise...
Gene, How about sawing out the entire quarter section, cleaning up the cut and welding it back together. Use some .625 pins in the holes to gauge the correct...
I think I would do the bandsaw weld thing when I am ready to do mine. Even if it requires making three trips to the Lenox dealer. Can't think of any easier ...

Folks: I think I have a simple solution for slotting the #5 Crankshaft. It involves making a simple "Blade guide jig" from two 0.25" thick steel plates, which...
Not a good day Cletus, Woke up and the DSL was down so had to use the modem and forgot how slow it can be. When to the bearing store and there computer was...
I like the guide plate idea too. But I think I'll try the reciprocating band-saw idea. Might even hook up a motor and crank. Once I get the feel of it I'll...
Gee, thanks for using the photo of the #3 engine on the home page for the group. I talked with a woodworking friend about making some lagging for the sides of...
I visited the local metal supply house called, "The Metal Supermarket", from the name you would think they had everything. There isn't that big a stock but...
Gene, Does Mr. HasBrouck mention anything about lapping or honing the cylinders in Engine # 5 notes? There is nothing in Engine # 1 notes because he figured...
Rich, He didn't say a thing about honing the cylinders. But what I have all ways did was use a brake cyl hone and electric drill to smooth out the bore. I...
