OK so my crank sensor disc was delayed so I went over to the machine shop to apply a little pressure!

When I got there the crank pulley had been finished but the timing sensor support bracket needed machining.

Anyway first picture is of the crank pulley with the timing disc attached. Perfectly good use for some tastey machinery .....


Timing disc fitted

I got talking to the operator and being inquisitive I wanted to know about the CNC milling machine. So I got to play a bit with the bracket and came up with the following .....


CNC'd crank sensor bracket

You won't even see it cus its under the engine but I know its there. Oh and it says RAW cus my car is a RAW Engineering Striker

I thought it said "PAW" for a moment there

Cheers

You do need to keep that "operator Sweet", people who can do stuff like that need to be your friends!!!

Nice job with the bracket btw

Nice work!

I'm about to order a 6' x 4' sheet of stainless that I'm getting laser cut for work. Trouble is I'll end up with about 2' x 4' off cut.

Unless I can think of something else to get laser cut?

Definitely gonna keep the operator stocked on goodies cus we spent a couple of hours on it. It was using the engraving option which he doesn't get to play with much. Made a change to the usual routine I suppose and it only cost me some beer money!
