It has been a productive week. The engine bilge has been painted, cabin sole beams installed, all the loose lead has been cast into ingots and returned to the bilge, and just today I have lowered the engine back onto its mounts.

This week we will see if we can get the engine aligned to the prop shaft (Greg from Comer Engineering is the expert) and basically continue putting Sylph back together again.

Sylph’s lead casting foundry in operation:

producing nice clean lead ingots:

The engine bilge painted out:

and the BRM back in its proper place (needs a clean up):

All is well.
