If we could scale it up and print in metal we'd be all set.

Isn't there a place that 3D prints casting sand cores?, maybe we could get a full size block made.

Speaking of new blocks, I wonder what ever happened to "Tod" and his project? I haven't seen him on for a while.

Tod's been busy installing a new machining center, setting up his own foundry and still making model A parts every day. I think the flathead block is secondary to paying bills but not abandoned.
