Tom;

The thru hole on the one I have is .375. The shank has a .125 wall.

Interesting tool. Frank Ford made something similar. His is designed to accommodate .500" but could be scaled up.

Thank you Darren. That one is less complicated to set and adjust.

[attachment=5898] Time to make some major progress on this engine. 20 blanks 24 operations per blank. One operation is completed on all of the blanks before going to the next operation. I would like to complete this task in one week.

"Billy G"
It looks like the easy operation is done. At least it's 12L14 instead of nasty 1018.

Holy cow Bill, six spares? Let's hope you won't need that many. Yikes

This build changed to the Lee Hodgson 18 when so many things were fond wrong with the P&W. Everything was redone on the prints and we will finish that one after this one.. There is only 1 spare and 1 set-up piece. The other 18 have to be spot on.
