Hi All,

I`ve been a model engineer for over 60 years!.My main interests are I.C engines from 1.5cc model aircraft engines to a quarter scale 550cc, 14 cylinder, sleeve valve engine. There`s a lot of work in this project. I am also interested in rebuilding and making machine tools.This includes a CNC milling machine( travels, X 400mm, Y 200mm and Z 380mm) with attachments for both 4 and 5 axis operation. I am currently rebuilding a Stettler 64-110 cylindrical grinding machine-put this into Google to see one in action..Anybody out there got one of these ?.Thought I`d move into the 21st century and try this forum stuff.
