Default Bonza hit and miss engine designed by John Williams

Hello all, here is photo of Bonza hit & miss 28.3 cc engine designed by Mr John Williams of Melbourne.

He kindly supplied me a set of drawings to build this during 2010 and has given permission for me to provide the same to this hobby site for personell use.

I think I have today uploaded the drawings etc in 3 parts. Bonza plans, Bonza Notes and Bonza photo.

Hello, I've tried to upload plans etc again (3-parts) each time and again 1-part today, it seems to work without any error messages, I must be doing something wrong so I've given up.

Could the reason you're having problems uploading because of too large a file size?

Hello,
Before I uploaded I checked file index and there are some files there (15mb or bigger) so I thoughtit would be OK.

Kind regards.

Hi Airbus,

Just briefly introduce myself.
I am a teacher at a technical school to teach pupils aged 17 and 18.
I myself spent several years making small steam engine little, and have also 3 years ago tried this at my school.
Well it was a great success, the students were asking more than this in the future to continue to do so.
The first engine was a simple steam engine, one year later, we built a flame eater per pupil and a 2 - stroke 12 cc engine with a class.
Last year I used my class a 5 cylinder radial engine gebouwt, the colleagues build a 4-stroke, a 2 stroke in January and February Sturlings Knights and another student at a Yes fan.
So as you can see, both teachers and students fascinated by engines.
For this school year I started with a V-8 engine and colleagues with the Comber Rotary Engine.
Since I'm always looking for new ideas have I met you Bonza pretty disappointing.
But I can not find the drawings and attachments in the download area.
Would it be possible to email it to me then I projecht prepare and make the future look compline.
I will make all the plans have yet to convert to mm I suppose.
Here are some sites where you can admire our work.

Hello Airbus and welcome, perhaps the difficulty in uploading the plans for this suberb looking and sounding engine is because of the file type being invalid. Where the files in a .zip form or .pdf? Have a look at the accepted file types that are listed when you go to the upload page and it asks you to select a file. I do hope that you are able to get the files up here as this engine is quite an interesting one.
