BR2 engine for Sopwith Snipe
Hi all - I am currently doing a very protracted build of Copper State Models Sopwith Snipe. The engine in this kit is not the best, so I have scratchbuilt this one. The cylinder heads aren't detailed - but once in the cowl they will not be visible (I don't 'Model for God')
Carpo

Br2
Hi Taz,
The hardest part would appear to be the cylinders but they are turned up on my lathe (10 inch bed - 12 volt motor Clisby lathe) so no worries there! The induction manifold is made from brass wire, simply bend and cut to fit! Carpo
