cause that’s what john wick quoted his did in his lastest movie…
but seriously, that’s nearly 400 fps, absolutely flying for a " spud " … I bet it slowed down REAL fast when it left the " barrel "
They should be treated with respect and I would never shoot one at anything I wouldn’t shoot at with a gun, but that’s great news! I have very fond memories of playing with spud guns back in the day.
No where as dangerous as the peg guns that I used to play with the steel spring of a peg connected to a rubber band with another peg as the trigger all mounted on on a piece of wood. Then there were the bottle rocket guns a piece of copper tube attached to a piece of wood. light the fuse and let em rip. Not a muzzle loader there was a cut out to light them up.
This is bloody awesome! Phew!!!

A lot smaller than what you work on. 14 litre Series 60. Engine got dusted and grabbed #1.
It’s done 600000km so decided to do an in chassis and replacing the cam and head. Crank is in really good shape, bearings where good but replacing them anyway.
I take it this block has cylinder liners so you can do it in chassis without reboring it? This is cool.
Yeah, wet sleeve engine. Pistons and liners come as a set. Broke a fucking oil ring so have to wait till Monday to get another one. Could go on a deer hunt tomorrow but I didn’t bring a rifle with me. ( 4.5hrs from home)
Something terrible happened.
I ordered my usual carton of 20kg of Cape Grim Bolar Blade for roasting at the shop. I opened the carton and is was full of prime rib. I couldn’t believe it. So anyway I reordered the same bolar blade, $14.95kg and waddya know?
Somebody up there loves me. Its raining prime ribeye bone in steaks.

Dont get Greedy, you always come unstuck when you do.
Finally got the engine rebuild finished. Couldn’t get required parts due to fucking incompetent pricks full of excuses!
Promised delivery Tuesday morning and they finally turned up at 10 am today. Anyway, she fired up and passed all tests and inspections. Test drive went well. Very happy now.

That first key turn is always a bit of a 
moment
We turned it over a number of times by hand before we hit the key but I’m hearing you.
There’s an online auction next weekend if any of you guys were interested.
