Correct Paul, we need those lightweight end housings; hang in there

 Is anyone working on aluminium end/ centre housings yet!?

 Yes

Royce,
How is it going with the aluminium housing. I've been looking at those
myself and don't wish to get into something someone else is doing - I've got
enough on my plate at the moment.
What is the direction your taking for hard surfacing.

Hi George

We have all the patterns made for the housings.
We have not had much time to work on them this summer, work, 
rain, building new shop, rained out from that several days, etc.
We do have most of the engineering done and as we said the 
patterns made. We also have some of the other details worked out.
It is not just an aluminum end housing project, but a light 
weight single rotor engine. So there are many details to deal with
in all this. As you know from your bell housing project you sometimes 
have to redo something to get it right. Our project is  to
have a single rotor engine that is lightweight, powerful, 
and still run many hours under full load.
