My brother has a piston ashtray too. It's a bit bigger (from a light aircraft engine*), so he was able to cut it down to the centres of the little end, so it has the gudgeon pin recesses to rest the ciggie in. Not a fan of smoking (I'm asthmatic) but it does look very smart  * he used to work for a company that reconditioned them & this one was going spare as it had a cracked skirt |

Well after literally hours and hours of fabrication and engineering wizardry I managed to turn one of my mahles I got laying about upside down, remove the pin and put it on top of the telly. I know I know, you're all jealous of my mad skillz, what can I say you've either got it or you haven't. This one's only from a poncy v6. I need to source a big block piston or two methinks. Or a piston out of a 500/600cc single thumper.  |

This one also could be used either way up therefore requiring no costly and time consuming turning over, It could also be used as a bird bath. I thought about making this into an ashtray but no longer smoke, Ive used the tesco card for scale as fortunately I have no fags anymore.  Here is the con rod.

Cummins V16 Diesel Engine for those who care  I care! Big diesel engines are possibly the coolest thing on earth. Which possibly means I'm on the wrong forum... |
