Hey there, fellow handypeople! I'm excited to share with you a tool I created for installing a piston and rings in a 3hp Briggs engine. It has proven to be incredibly useful, and I thought I'd pass along the knowledge. To make this tool, I printed and then use used a flex hone to smooth it out, resulting in a smoother and to size fit . The best part is that it's not limited to just one type of engine. I've successfully used it to install pistons in various engines. All you need to do is scale the model to match your specific requirements using a slicer. When printing, I recommend using five walls to provide ample strength to hone to size of t of the piston, you can ensure a tight fit. Once you've printed it, simply knock the piston into bore using plently of oil with hammer handle, and you're good to go! I'm thrilled to be able to share this tool with you all. It's an excellent addition to any engine-building project. However, please note that this tool is intended for personal use only and should not be used for commercial purposes. Enjoy the benefits of this fantastic tool and happy engine building!
