this is an unknown make of horizontal open crankshaft engine. originally gas, now converted to petrol/parrafin with magneto ignition. believed to be pre 1900. I have had to make many new parts, the cams on the side shaft are two odd ones and in useless condition, the original style is lost.I have established the lead and lag angles for valve opening but would like giudance on design/angles etc for manufacture. The two useless cams on the engine have two differant profiles i.e. one remains fully open longer thanthe other, this I feel is incorrect???. Any help would be most appreciated. Many thanks, Brian H.
not unusual. exhaust cycles are usually longer.

Should I mount it on foam board? Should I frame it? I’m a senior in college and sadly this is the first opportunity I’ve had to exhibit my graphic design work. I have a gallery opening coming up in April that is exhibiting my work. I am not sure if it is proper for graphic design to be framed or mounted. I am hoping the answer is mounted because I am a poor college student and frames are expensive!! Most of my work is posters, logos, lots of grungy stuff. Any answers are most appreciated! THANKS!
Typically you would mount it on black book board with a 1.25 inch border for anything 8.5 x 11 or smaller and a 2 inch border for anything bigger like posters. Book board is expensive…ish, so your next best bet is black foam core. Just make sure to use a ruler and a VERY sharp razor so you get nice professional straight cuts.

So i’m doing a Graphics product, and it’s corporate identity, so i decided to do a band and promote them/ their merchandise.
Basically.. I need to design a Logo for my chosen band ‘Flesh’
It’s going to be a Punk band, so gore is acceptable.
I also wouldn’t mind like semi naked people.. that would be cool.
I was wondering if anyone had any ideas/ pictures which would help me?
I’ve already got some ideas;
A woman with her top half naked and she’s got ‘Flesh’ etched down her back.
The same but on an arm
Or ‘flesh’ tattooed onto an arm/part of the body,
My boyfriend came up with doing something like the cover of Blink 182’s Dude Ranch,
A cow with ‘blink 182′ branded on it’s bum,.
That would be pretty good.
Thankyou for all your help/ideas in advance :]

I have set up a new design business (web and logo) called Steve’s Web Design. I’m offering a heavily reduced price on my logos so I can build up my portfolio at £100 a logo! But I can’t get hardly any customers. How can I get more using the internet. I know you can spend tonnes advertising and I have put some in the free classified ads such as Craigslist but for no results. Please tell me how to get started.
Thanks
One way of enticing your clients to bring you more clients is giving them incentives. You can offer them some discounts on their next design jobs.
As a marketing tool you can also create a portfolio of your previous design jobs. This you can use to present when you are selling your service. Your must at least have a portable and online portfolio for selling purposes.
Be always on the look out for new businesses in your surrounding. They might need to use your graphic design services to market themselves in the area. Get their addresses and send them mailers like postcards telling them about your services.
Usually new businesses need business cards, brochures, letterheads, forms and many other marketing materials.
You must also be friendly to other people in the industry and related industries. For someone who still needs exposure it also helps to provide your services free of charge on your spare time.
