If still available could I recieve plans for the first engine; forward to [email protected] Thank you

I see this is a old thread but would you have drawings or a sketch of the jig I am having trouble visualing the jig If available email to [email protected] Thank you Robert Wager

I am rather new to steam engines; but your design looks like something I could accomplish. I have downloaded the revised drawings but see that a number of the compounds lack dimensions. Is there a set of dimensioned drawings? If so could you email a set to the address below Bikerbob@magma Dot...

Thanks for the web site; will check it out Bikerbob

Thanks for the info I have redesigned the cylinder for a 2" stroke and 3/32 dia ports now to start looking for material bikerbob

Good day folks I would like to design a oscillating steam engine. I am looking for reference material (books videos etc) to aid in the design I am envisioning an engine with 1" bore and 2 to 3" stroke operating on compressed air Need info on bore to stroke ratio; port dias; and oscillating...
