Been working on the motor, time consuming even with a lot of modelling time, which I've not had! Plus I went slow, trying to make it
look better than the last ones I've done, and I am pleased with the result. Here she is, all 350+ parts!

As you can see, I added a few extras. Laser cut nuts from Draf Model really add a nice "dimension". The ignition harness is some large
floral wire wrapped around the top of an Aleen's glue bottle to get the circle shape, then CA'd the "wires" onto that. The material I
used for the wires is really great stuff - it's 1mm "Stretch Magic" bead and jewelry cord. This stuff actually feels like rubber coated
wire. It's a bit shinier than I'd like, but we'll pretend this is a brand new engine right off the assembly line!
