  1. Hi Olivier, Your tenacity attire the respect. However, to my eyes, you ask to your printer something for which she is not made! I don't know anything about this technic but the tutos I saw (figures etc) were not as thin as your demand... This work to me require etched method! Just a view, I'm sorry! Dan.
  2. Where is the devil? The beginning... Spark plugs caps... Dan.
  3. I'm confused by that: May be also an manual air intake adjustment of the compressor ? All the rest linkage only! Dan.
  4. So sorry too to read that! I wish you patience and courage and of course a prompt recovery...ASAP! Dan.
  5. You are welcome Codger! Take a look at: https://www.hemmings.com/magazine/hcc/2010/12/Silent-Knight/3693461.html
  6. Thank you very much gentlemen! And sometimes, "Can I now do that again"... With a doubt, of course! We are always_ fortunately_ in the doubt, and it's to my eyes a good thing. Well, today plumbing, the real car: You can see some work is needed on this side! And on the top, the beginning of the head cover. Note it's a valveless engine, a Knight patent. Dan. PS: I can't remove the first "quote case". What is going on? Thanks
  7. Happy New Year ladies & gentlemen! And thanks guys for your kind words, always much appreciated... Today, around the radiator. Of course, nobody will see them in a few... month (!), but it's there and I know that! First steps... What a puzzle! Dan.
  8. Welcome to the brass maniac club Nikita! Good job , and in 1/24 scale, not easy... Dan.
  9. Merry Christmas ladies and gentlemen! To Roy, in the real life ash tree is used. Here, plywood! And no wood on the Talbot, it's for the Bugatti, were I used oak and red wood, sorry... First today, steering gearbox: And on the body now, the real car: And mine... Come back now to the engine. Do you remember, exhausts pipes are ready, lets go! It's easier with a jig: Strange pipes? Yes indeed... Dan
  10. What a challenge! What a result! Congratulations Sir... Dan.
  11. No more? Codger, I'm disappointed... Well, today, first aluminum pieces. Floor: And next, forming and settings! And thanks gentlemen for your kind words... Dan.
  12. Hi gentlemen and thanks! Temporarily stuck with trouble on my mill, I stopped the mechanic job... Lets go to the coachbuilder job! And of course, some wood is required, remember, we are in 1927. The beginning... An a very curious belt! Dan.
  13. Harvey, I take some time to tell you how your work on this model let me speechless. To my eyes your skills on metalworking are awesome and pieces so realistic! If you put your pics in black an white, you can see for sure the real car ninety years ago... I do love that! Hats off Sir, Dan.
  14. You are showing how tenacity, talent, skills and perseverance can with a good basis achieve a piece of art. Thank you sir! Dan.
  15. Thank you gentlemen! Engine, more... Carburetors side, without... carburetors! But water pump and fan: Exhaust side, without... But the goal is: Pipes are coming! Annealed brass (0.3mm) and a good hammer! Dan.
  16. Harvey, I'm speechless... But I do love your incredible work! Hats off Sir. Dan.
  17. Hi gentlemen! A come back after a small (!) break, and it's well known it's always hard... Some work on the pedals, the goal: Very strange, but remember, this car is a prototype. You can see also the engine is coming... And thanks Snowman! Dan
  18. Thank you very much Harvey! Still alive and well condition... Just a break, what a break did you say? Yes indeed! But the come back is now just for some days... Dan.
  19. Sam, you are another truly gentleman on this magnificent forum. Thank you for the community and good luck but I'm confident! Dan.
  20. Thank you very much gentlemen! After the gearbox, clutch housing of course... The beginning... Dan.
