The last couple of main rod pictures didn't turn out too well but I am happy to report that with the exception of boring the ends, all of the main rod machining is complete! There is still quite a bit of work to be done in the finish and polishing department, but I think I'll pass that job on to my brother! :-)
Now its on to the side rods. Just a quick taper to the rods like this....
And then its time to start plowing out the middle of the rod. Ed rooted around for a bit and came up with what will hopefully be the perfect slot cutter. I wish he had found it to cut out the middle of the mains, but I guess it was not to be.
