    Deppenbusch engine

    Deppenbusch engine

    Deppenbusch engine

    I’m currently in the middle of my third Deppenbusch engine, I was bored and it’s an easy engine to build and modify. I was checking out the forums thinking that I’d find some interesting deviations from the plans, but the only posts that I could find were my own, doesn’t anyone build this one ?

    Ok, I tried it again and paid attention. When I hit save to files it goes to something called iCloud Drive, but I don’t have an icon for that either.

    I went to settings, there is no “files “ there is notes and books, and it’s not in either one of those.
