Photo Borings cylinder

Been gathering the bits for a while to do cylinder boring. I'm rebuilding the Tecumseh 10HP that came out of the lawn tracter I picked up at Pawnee this year. It's mowed a lot of grass in it's day. The cylinder will end up .020" oversize. Here is a picture of the setup. It's an iron sleeve engine and I'm using a carbide tool. Took a little fiddling to get it square then I took off .001" at a time. It was interesting to see the wear patern as the cuts were made.
