Believe it or not I have been working on the Helicycle. A little at a time. I had to figure out how to polish the push-pull rods. I made more work for myself when I drilled the holes for the control plugs. I scratched up the ends pretty bad and it took a lot of sanding and polishing to make them look somewhat reasonable. I bought several polishing wheels for my grinder and three different pastes. The final step was using Mother’s aluminum polish so they look ok. I then had to reinstall the control plugs. Finally, I installed the rods on the ship. I also polished the cyclic walking beams and they turned out ok too. Merry Christmas to all and have a Blessed new year.
I Appreciated your blog and nice information about Push pull rodsThanks for sharing.
