Oh, right. Thanks. Shiny! I'm pretty sure I saw ones like in use
decades ago that were...ummm... not shiny. :-)

There's a club here that does restorations like that but their
clubhouse/workshop is 90 miles away. I try go get to their shows
but
they're too far away to get to the regular meets. They're into
single-bangers, too, and I have a couple of those but no rig to take
them to the shows.


Im looking or a Hit N Miss engine to play with, if anyone runs into
one.

The owner of a local surplus store is trying to get me to make a gear
for an antique cement mixer run from one of his hit & miss engines. I
told him to make a smoothly meshing sheet metal mockup of what he
wants, to use as a template for a form cutter, though I suspect it
will be too large for my Clausing mill to drive unless he'll accept an
aluminum gear.
