I have to agree. You are an artist. That is so well done that I think my wife would let me put it in the office. By the way that is saying a lot. Great work.

My lady would kick me out of bed and sleep with it. That's how much we like it! Well done.

It's been a long time for this to be dormant but I had a few hours today while I wait on parts on another project. So I decided to make the Magneto a cutaway. Anyways on to the pictures.
I never realized the nylon gear/rotor stalls while it builds up the charge to spark. Then I was looking on the ID tag and it says something about a 15 degree delay. Guess I learned something today

Wow Lance, you certainly do nice work. I really like the cuts you made in the engine highlighted in red paint to show the internal working parts of the 2A042 engine. That engine stand is simple, yet of interesting design. Now, what show are you going to display it at? I'm sure others would like to see it as well.
BTW, how is your lathe rebuilding coming?

The lathe is done or at least functional. There's a thread here about it. https://www.practicalmachinist.com/vb/m ... -a-343608/
