I saw this on the box last night, it was a wonderful bit of new technology that saved an old car. What a car, in the TV piece it looked like it could still get a fair speed up.

I will admit that I don't understand 3D printing but what a brilliant use of the tech. to produce a new block.
Well done humans.

Well done humans. 3D printing is almost the reverse of milling and grinding, you just add material instead of removing material.

Well done humans. 3D printing is almost the reverse of milling and grinding, you just add material instead of removing material. A clever way of explaining it! Thanks and I can't guarantee I won't plagiarise you sometime in the future.

Pattern making is pretty much a vanished craft, this way the casting can be reproduced. Integral heads and cylinders crop up all over the place in the vintage world (Bentley 3 and 4.5 are this way).
An interesting read.
