Hi Mark
10 inches would be more than adequate , my 6 incher is a tad small for some jobs , too much unsupported overhang of the job .....................you'll be needing a large one for "The Keg"
Cheers
John

Hi All, Ok it's been a long time since i worked on this project, but back on with the build . I have decided to scrap the annular combustor design. I can see a lot of problems and don't wont to risk the turbine wheel as a replacement wheel will cost a shit load of money  so have started building the combustor can that will sit on top of the scroll housing.    |
