Made some progress today. I got the top half of the transfer case milled out. There is still lots to do on it but this was the hard part. It took just under 4 hrs of machine run time to change the cast slab to this. I have the file ready to do the bottom part tomorrow If all goes well.

Those will be filled with the TIG welder, I may look into using a tin based alloy as they are not structural. The filler has to be conductive so I can powdercoat it if I want to. The better I get at casting the less that will happen as well.

I managed to get the bottom half of the transfer case milled today. Did a test fit and it looks good so far. I now have a bucket of aluminum chips that can be re-melted into the next part lol. Now it's back to the lathe to make the extensions so I can weld them on. The hardest part of the transfer case build is over now.

I am glad someone posted the link to this thread in the three wheeler section as I did not know it was here. Agree with all the comments. Very impressive and keep the updates flowing.

What part of PA do you live in? I took my Morgan around the state in the fall with my dad on his Harley. Lots of great roads and things to check out.

I am south west of Pittsburgh. Lots of great rides in my area.
