I love Elmers engines, and I love the concept of all the moving mechanisms on a beam type engine.--That being said, after building one of Elmers basic wobblers, I find them, well,--tiny!!! They work, and they work very well, but for new amateur machinists like myself, its almost micro machining. I want a beam engine that is larger, and somewhat simpler to build, and one for which a kit is not needed. I want the parts to be large enough that I can machine them without a magnifying glass, and I want all the parts to be made from bar stock. So--I have taken Elmers beam engine, scaled it up to twice the size Elmer had in mind, and I am doing up a complete set of plans which I will post here. Many of the peices will be simplified, and if someone wants to take any of the parts and fancy them up a bit, that is perfectly fine with me. Stick around, and as I get the plans completed, they will be posted here with full dimensions and material specifications.--Brian
