Great job! You might want to weld a piece of square section tubing to the bottom. Then you can clamp it in your bench vice and use it the opposite way around. That way with the saw upside down you have the rod already between the ears and no worries about messing up the rod or small end.

And is the case pictured a 61?

Very nice.   You did a great job on cutting it out.   With out a band saw I would have thought that would be tough to do.
Looks good.

Very nice work.  Good pics and tutorial as well.  Are you going to make a couple more to sell?
