Hi there,
after showing the raw base for my hit and miss engine from Banggood here some time ago, I can now report some progress
All required holes are drilled and threads are cut to fit the switch and the tank.

The base is painted in gun metal gray, with a matte 2k topcoat.
The motor is fixed with stainless steel studs and threaded sleeves inside the base.

Ignition and batteries are mounted on an aluminium plate inside the base, which is screwed onto these sleeves.
The wires leading from the reed contact to the ignition system are led down through a hole in the base.
Unlike the blue engine here not a Hall sensor, but a reed contact is used (two instead of three wires)

Almost all screws on the engine are exchanged for hexagon bolts.

Maybe some time in the future I will add a nice generator and mount everything together on a wooden base, but there is no time for that now.
Kind regards,
Thomas
