Finished the small parts in the lathe today after work. There is key-way, an oil-injector and grinding left on them only.

This changes the entire concept of "build".



Very admirable, you will have an amazing understanding of the engine when you are done.

Very important for me is that you all understand that I'm not an company or working in a Speedshop. I'm working with CNC-mill, and have the opportunity from my boss to use the machines at nights and weekends for private projects.

The whole project are payed with own money, no sponsors or gifts



The whole concept are my own drawings. Got bored searching for any hints on the Internet and all of our forums about 4rotor. Decided to use MasterCam X4, and Inventor to draw the shaft my self

Therefore I don't can guarantee that it works



The complete shaft will cost about 10K SEK, that is about 1400 USD today
