Building me a Ruttman

[stevehuckss396]

when you start building the engine?

I started 2 of them a few years ago. The first one is finished and now I'm getting around to finishing this one. The first one was completed about a year or so ago.

When?

I still have to finish the design work. I have most of the design done but I wont even make the first piece until I complete the design 100%. I'm making progress on the V8 so I will try to finish that and then get back on the mini bike.

any updates?

You are a wizard!!! Unbelievable skill. Those mini v8's you've built are works of art... How many 12 packs would you need to build one for a fellow OldMiniBikes member? Ha!

Nice skills Steve!

Nothing going on with it. I have been working on some other things and most of my focus has been trying to get the blower motor finished. I need to make another crankshaft and they just plain suck. I'm going to spend the day trying to get the compressor V-twin going.

The chioce of motor might change. Maybe not.

Thanks for the kind replies and interest. I will get back to it but time is very limited right now.

The beverage sounds good.

Too bad everything is on hold. There was an engine builder named Bob Shores who sold kits to build engines. He passed away so I promised to help finish the engine he was working on when he passed. I committed to it long ago so true to my word I have to drop all projects and get going on it. The mini bike and blown V8 will have to wait. Too bad because I finally finished the crankshaft for the V8.
