8th Scale Offenhauser Engine

[daytonatim]

Just wanted to share a WIP on my 8th scale Offy.

I modeled this up in the computer and printed out using a 3D printer. The printer leaves a rough surface on the parts so I am experimenting a little to find the best finishing method. That is why some of the parts look a little rougher than the rest.

Here are some WIP pics I hope they come out ok. I am trying to remember how to post pics to this site.

This is the raw block and cylinder bank

This is the water pump and front block cover. They are a little rougher than I wanted, I was trying to simulate a rough casting.

This is the rear motor mount. Getting a little smoother.

This is the flywheel. The printer does a pretty good job on the inside teeth.

This is the lower block assembly.

I guess I am just getting old.

Could someone remind me how to get the pics to showup in the tread listing.
