You know - there is an idea - I wonder what an engine would cost - put it up on an engine stand, and do it with my son and daughter. I've done it myself, but not in 20 years.

I've also made a single cylinder 2 stroke engine from scratch - as in starting with bocks of metal, and doing all the machining. That is a lot of fun

One of the guys at the local club built the worlds smallest working multi cylinder, 4 cycle motor. I've seen it run - amazing
