To those of you who have built up your
engines already (or have purchased an engine from Bruce or another
builder), did you or your builder take this step before final assembly, or
did you simply put everything back together and trust in faith that the
spinning masses will be harmonious in their inter-relationships?  All
comments welcome and appreciated.

I've never had the two engines I built balanced.  just made certain I had
the correct counter weights for the rotors being used and it seemed to run
smoothly.  But, then compared to a reciprocating engine it would probably
seem smooth even if it were out of balance.
