You have really met that complex challenge very well.

Hello all,

now the exhaust tubes are finished. I "repaired" them a little bit by cutting the sharp edges and glued a little piece of paper with the same colour on it. I like the golden colour of the tubes, even that's not authentic.

@rifleman, Gary, Don and alzictorini thank you for your kind words and your interest.

[Don Boose]

That is a magnificent engine. Only three more to go! But now that you have the technique, the dimensions, and angles of the exhaust stacks sorted out, they should go quicker.

Hello Don,

yes the main task is done (about the dimensions, places and angles) but you aren't right, there are still four engines left, because this one is a prototype (Mk 0) (of course you couldn't know this, it's a shortcoming decision of mine) ;-).

Here a last pic from Mk 0, with ignition cables. Now I want to do a revision with the parts of the stacks and the cylinders to get a more uniform appearence of the engine.

Hello friends,

here the improvements. Cylinders with holes to put in the exhaust tubes, the grey of the engine is lighter and the printed cooling fins are clearer. And the shape of the exhaust tubes is modified. But look yourself.

[MacSongLi]

Beautiful work on the exhaust tubes.

Gary

[Don Boose]

Yes. This engine is a work of art.
