Drilling a Rosette Cam for the Rose Engine

The 9" diameter rosette cam has been centered on the rotary table on the milling machine and the center hole bored to the correct size. The quarter phase index holes are being drilled to allow phase adjustments. This larger cam can be rotated quite a bit faster than the original 6.5" diameter rosette cam.
