Stopping for the night. Heads and cylinders are next. One of those projects that is hard to stop once you get going
Thanks,

Looks like a fun kit I’d do.

Cool - looks like it could be a fun little teaching aid for engineering students.

Re: Teching 1/6 5 cylinder radial engine
I've learned a bit about radial engines for sure.
I got the kit from MicroMark. I've seen it and a couple others in their flyer for the past couple months and finally pulled the trigger.

But, it would be super-cooper cool if it were the R-4350…..
To make each build less crappy than the last one. Or, put another way, "Better than the last one, not as good as the next one!"..
Re: Teching 1/6 5 cylinder radial engine
Once cylinder head done, 4 to go. Note the rocker arms over the functioning valves
