      I like that better than supporting it with a piston to be honest. What was along the edge of the glass? Metal?

        Im guessing your living room stays pretty much the same temp year round, what oil are you going to use?

        But really, great ingenuity and quality work going on here! Will you have some roundel drink coasters or something equivalently automotive related to place on it?

          thanks. mitch - the glass is just round beveled, no metal edge or anything. rian - definitely need to add something like that. roundel coasters are a great idea. maybe a model bmw that has the m60 engine (e31, de tomaso, b10 4.0). going to have some sort of etched or engraved plaque with the engine model/specs as well.

                    ECS says it's a mini part but that's still cool.

                        RealOEM won't help with that, try something like Alldata or Motologic.  That'll give you the factory folding specs.

                                    A message from pelican parts regarding my recent order:

                                    "I attempted to call, but unfortunately I was unable to reach you.
                                    BMW just notified me that following item is No Longer Available (NLA):

                                    80-53-0-141-818-BOE

                                    I was unable to locate a substitution for the part above at the moment.
                                    I have cancelled the item from your order.

                                        too bad, although I'm not surprised.  when I initially found them on FCP, they were listed as NLA as well.

                                        i wonder if i send napkins through my HP printer it will jam....

                                          back to it:

                                          i settled on some bmw coasters.  scale models of BMWs with the m60 engine are hard to find (1:18 scale, particularly, but 1:24 too) no 840 or 540 models, boo.

                                          not sure if this is a real BMW part number, but they sure seem quality and are never used.
