I found a bushing today that fits the shaft, it was a little tight so I polished the inside with some emory and now it slides on like butter drippin' off a hot biscuit.
I began to make a template for the kickstarter shaft support. Tomorrow I will cut some metal and weld it up and hang it.
I pulled the spark plug out today, and gently worked the kickstarter and got a spark. I think this machine should fire up once the little bit of light oil that was protecting the internals in the cylinder and crankcase blows out. Its gonna be smokey! I might even foul a plug in the process, yay!
Rolled outside for more pics:
