Guess I like my job, I bring it home...

I grabbed some scrap parts after lots of begging, made a shelf in the garage for them. I keep my Z stuff in the study room, now I need to get me some models to put on the empty space of rx7/8's and I am set.

Eureka!

I think I just discovered the issue that has been ailing the rotary for all these years:

It's that pink Eccentric Shaft.

All the boss's at work have mazda rotor clocks, I have been playing with the idea of turning a used one into a digital clock then rubbing it in there faces since I want theres.

I will see if I can get a pic of one of theres, its not in a actual housing though but purty anyways.

Here are some display sets that I take from damaged parts. I clean them and then powdercoat them. They are currently FS.
