The cylinder block casting was clamped to the
mill table using a socket
head cap screw and strap. The casting was shimmed to align the
OD perpendicular to the mill table and the casting was faced . The
casting was then flipped end for end and the operation repeated using the
first machined surface as a reference. |
|
The cylinder block was set up in a 4 jaw chuck
on the lathe and centered on the block OD. The block was bored to
accept the cylinder liner |
|
Once faced and bored, the cylinder block was
setup on the Cube. The block was aligned visually using the sides
of the water hopper pad. Paper shims were used to protect the
surface of the Cube. |
|
Mounting surfaces for the water hopper, ignitor, and push rod
guide have been machined. |
|
Cylinder block mounting surfaces have
been drilled and tapped. |
