Maybe, yes. They are the ABS that has NO vacuum booster. The failure mode is that the boost seal in the cylinder starts weeping, then the pump starts to run too long until it seizes... Voilà!

Re: [MBZ] W123 engine parts for Uncle Scrooge
Yeah, I've seen the makerbot's, rep-raps, and similar DIY printers, but they're still very primitive compared to what I have access to right now. I'm not saying that they aren't worth the time or effort to build and operate, just that I can more effectively employ the multitude of subtractive processes at my disposal to meet my set end-goals in my projected time frame.

Re: [MBZ] W123 engine parts for Uncle Scrooge
3D printers can be built for $1000 or less but they use plastic not metal. A manufacturing-sized machine, maybe it would use different plastics, would cost a lot more, but they exist for prototyping and limited production runs. Metal can be done with an electro-something process but it takes forever and is really expensive (and so are the machines). http://blog.makezine.com/archive/2009/12/3d-printing-and-fabrication-open-so.html --R On 2/19/2011 4:39 PM, Mountain Man wrote: Walt wrote: Upper oil pan is nearing completion, I'm finished except for some more material removal to fit the starter.

Very interesting article, I've been following the work in some trade pubs i get, it seems to be making stellar leaps every other time it's featured. Would likely be more than 6 feet of 1x4 aluminum and some 1/8 inch plate though, till the price goes down at least.
