If it ever get's stolen Bruce & I'm in WA, check my pockets for that & your Wankel.

But it's the 4 strokes that will go in my pockets first!

So back to mounts for display.

I have MKs 1 thru 3 of these Atoms.
The problem is that the wee tanks are kind of a problem in that the mounting plate of the crankcase is about 1/2 way the total height of the motor.

I am thinking using bent Brown Tip Silver Solder, bending for legs and each side with a small hardwood mounting/land.

Any ideas?

Cheers
