I'm a happy girl! I've lugged a rusty old 13-B rotor and housing with me over the past 7 years and at least four moves, hoping someday to have the thing chromed and made into a rotary objet d'art. But Santa took it and did something even better with it -- and he managed to do it without me even noticing it was gone, the shneaky bastid.:D Check out the pix! (One per post, three total):

The BEFORE pic:

Santa's inspiration:

And the final result! Powder-coated, gloss black and gloss Ferrari Red. TOO cool!! :D
Yeah, Santa's gettin' lucky tonight. :p

you're a very lucky girl, and santa gonna do ok too. Cool artifact.

An excellent x-mas present!

They usually go for around $30 plus $15-20 shipping on ebay. They're not rusty though, they're usually nice and shiny, or painted like the one in the pics in this thread. Just search for "rotary engine"

That is really cool. :)
