The moldings and castings are first rate!  Very well done.  How did you make the master and the mold for the cylinders?

Regards,

Bob
Title: Re: MF-11 1/16
Post by: OzkanT on November 03, 2014, 06:10:54 AM
 Bob  cylinder formed on  Dremel  using patern block then cut to two half because  fins are very thin and not easy to pull from silicone mould without damage. So I had to make silicon mould as left/right part. Bottom part of cylinder I  used a plastic pipe and round some masking tape to get right size. One cylinder  has six seperate parts and moulds. I am still working on patern for cylinder head and valve section.
