Engine mount.. Fab begins…

The diagram is a rough sketch of the pending build. I obtained it in one of the initial books purchased for this journey. I’ll put later the more detailed version. Many dimensions missing, but since it’s a 1 to 5 scale I can measure from the book.

I’ll post pictures of the completed unit that my neighbor is going to assist as he’s a top notch retired welder and great metal fabricator.

I managed to pickup the 1″ square tubing from a local metal supply vendor on their cut-off rack. They happened to have 6 24″ lengths and this should allow me to complete the full assembly.

I had to clean the rust from the steel and the following 3M tool was recommended to use on my Power Drill (Milwaukee). Wow was it a good remover of the rust and likely left the surface close to ready for painting.

The full diagram of the assembly is below..
