Congratulations Gus. I always look for your latest adventure postings from your balcony (and your boat) when I log in. I did not have any doubt you'd get it running.

Well done Gus, I've had limited internet access the last week, as I've been away from home. It's great to log on and find that you have a runner. I will go and check out the video on facebook right away. What shall we make next?

Paul.

I can't see your video either Gus. I've also sent a friend request.
Looking forward to seeing the vid!

Gus. Congratulations on yet another runner. I knew you had it in you. Thm:
I personally think you are truly inspirational for anyone with limited space and equipment. With each new build you prove time and again that you don’t need CNC, a Bridgeport mill or a lathe with a 10” swing to get into this hobby. Patients and ingenuity will get you there every time :bow:

Great to see it running!

Hi Steve,
I did succeed putting it on YouTube but could not get it into HMEM Forum.But somehow from YouTube,it went to FaceBook.
Thanks for making it viewable on HMEM.Please give your expert advice.

For the whole five months I was too shy to give up.I chewed on an engine that I could not swalloe and digest. All other items were not too difficult but the OuterHead had so many sub-assembilies to make and fit on.All these mini items demanded attention.It was the impatience that nearly ruined this project but sheer stubborness,obstinacy,pride and encouragement from HMEM Folks greatly helped to struggle on to completion and running this very unforgiving engine.The OuterHead was made twice and so was the cam box.

At last I did get to sleep well with a smile on my face.

Was great to have a wife to share my success. Bought her good lunch.
 
Gus, for any Youtube video just copy and paste the whole Youtube web address (starting with http...) into a normal post on HMEM and the video will display. At the very least it will provide a link to the video.

Congrats again on a great runner. Your success has inspired me and I will be beginning my own challenging build next week.
 
Hi Al.

Thanks for the expert advise on youtube posting.

As for Nemett-Lynx Engine, my problems were 1. Not reading individual plan and dimensions especially the centre distance between holes carefully. 2. Impatience.

OuterHead
Same is a major sub-assembly of a number of sub-sub assemblys which I failed to recognise.
Sub-Assemblies:
Cam-box/exhaust pipe/air intake/carb/ camshaft and cams/spark plug hole.
All together I had to make new pieces for O/H,Cam Box. Messed up spark hole and had to labourously re-work. Best to have the 1/4'' spark plug on hand to confirm hole depth so as to have plug end to protrude beyond O/H.

Next project will be the DIY MiniMagneto to drive the Webster Engine built last year.The kit cost me a bomb. Been reading up on mini magnetos. Plan to build one more if I can find the antique bicycle dynamos. The silicon steel laminations is not a problem as I plan to rob from discarded transformers.

Gus, Model Engine Builder magazine had a design for a nice mag that was quite a bit smaller than the Minimag one, think it was called the Vieti-mag.

The trick is getting the YouTube link in the correct format. They will give you a link like this

http://youtu.be/wo1YWfNiDGQ

All you'll get is the URL displayed. Which you can click on and go to YouTube

But if you enter the information in the format

Code:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wo1YWfNiDGQ

directly into the post the HMEM website will interpret it correctly and show the video in your post

Try it

Pete
