Something a little different for the hangar/man cave


Recommended Posts

Very nice floor. If I wasn't renting, that is an investment I would make.

The parts were all from my last O/H. Case had fretted and was no good. I replaced the cylinders w new so these were left over. Bought the prop for $100 from shop near me. Someone had landed gear up and curled the tips so I gave them a trim and polished the pieces. Had the case powder coated and the push rod tubes and valve covers chromed at a local shop.   Drew out the glass top shape on a cardboard template and had it cut to fit. A waste of money probably but, I like it. 

During my research for this, I saw a number of radial engine tables but no reciprocating ones. I thought this would at least be different.

Doing this with car engines is pretty common, and I think I've seen radials before, but never a boxer motor.   So from that perspective it's fresh!   And very nicely executed.   Kudos!
