Thanks Paul but what do I do with it?![]()
could others let me know if they see the engine video in the post.
I want one! If only I had more room . . . . . I love those old stationary engines. I think thats why my Webster ended up looking the way it does.
Actually ya, there was a VERY heavy Kerzel influence in my build.
Flywheels had always been the bane of my existence. Other than small and solid they would wobble all over the place. I found a reference to a Philip Duclos article on manually machining curved spoke flywheels. If you want have a look see post 147 to 171 of the build (yep. 4 pages of flywheel) (http://www.homemodelenginemachinist.com/showthread.php?t=23224&page=15 ) Tried to get as much info down as I could but dont know if it makes any sense to anyone else.
So. Any pick of your collection of 1:1 scale engines? Perhaps a video?![]()
Pete,
Go to www.smokstak.com There is a lot of information on hot tube engines and how they work and a lot more.
