I 'hand 'carved the unavailable cylinder cover gaskets for the M3W.
From a manually adjusted photo to a generated plotter file, followed by 738 (more or less) test prints on the plotter until it fit, and then milled on the CNC.

not perfect, but should work

Wow that's great
And now you have a print file, the question comes : Can we order from you?
Make a nice price for sending within the EU.

Nice work!


By the way: How thick is the original gasket?
I have a manufacturer who makes some motorbike gasket vor me.

Perhaps it is worth to ask him to make me an offer?

seems the original is 1mm.

I had only a 2mm gasket paper (what is also better for milling on the CNC) what also works.

Nice job!

We secured some OEM ones via Richard Thorne last October to deal with a slow leak - assume this was among the last of the "proper" ones ...
