John demonstrates how HE uses the equipment available to him in his shop to "Spin-Cast" a new bushing for the rear accessory case in the Wright J-5 Whirlwind engine, using Babbit.
Most professional machine shops would be better equipped, with all the equipment needed to do this job ... but John's shop is a "one-man" operation which he has developed over the years. Bit by bit he has acquired various pieces of equipment he thought he needed and over time he has figured out how to put what he has to use, in order to create what he is after!
We hope you enjoy watching this demonstration, and we hope we might have answered any questions you might have had about how this process is done.
As always, Thanks for Watching!
