What are you using for your wood (type, dimensions, planned finish)?

Building a small, high rpm engine with the perfect bore, stroke and rod ratio is very impressive.
It's like a highly skilled Morrocan sword fighter with a Damascus Steel Scimitar.....

Cubic inches is like Indiana Jones with a cheap pistol.

1.5” oak rough cut I bought off of an Amish guy. Wasn’t planning on planing it down, was probably just going to leave it rough cut.

Have most of the wood cut down to size. Have to rip a few boards and then the wood should be finished.

Started messing with the rear bumper area. Think I’m going with this. Same angle as my light piece but acts as a step.

Also whipped up some wheel tubs using my Mittler Bros bead roller. I don’t use it very often but I like having it for stuff like this.
