Morning all,

When I’ve finished my current project (an ML Midge 0.8cc side port diesel) I fancied having a go at a Sugden Special, partly inspired by the recent articles in ME.

The problem is getting a crankcase casting.  I have emailed a couple of people mentioned in various places so far without success or even a reply.

Anyone got any ideas if these castings are still available??

cheers

Good Day Bill,

I have an original casting for the Sugden Special that I have had in store for at least fifty years and would be willing to part with it! I had intended to make it but at that time I had neither the skills or equipment and yes I live in Australia.

This really does prove the benefits of this forum, where else could you expect such a service ?

Not having to wait twelve years would be better…

Hi Nicholas,

Twelve years is a long time to wait! Did you locate a casting and have you made the engine yet?
