I purchased one of their kit several years ago. That project is still
on my never ending to-do list. The casting is well done. Stress
relieved means it has been heated after casting to relieve the
internal pressures so it won't warp after machining. In the old days,
they would let the parts age a year or more to relieve the stresses.
Paula on Practical Machinist did a excellent article on machining
these. Here is the link.

I'm thiking of just buying the plans & wondering do the drawings

what does that mean ? I have a bud that's gonna give me the cast iron
