Ah Mr. Britnell! Thanks for your response and words of wisdom. I really enjoyed your display at N.A.M.E.S. this year. My friend and I spoke with you for a while on Saturday. This was our second year going and we have been discussing the possibility of bringing our engines (especially our jets)...

Oh and Gadabout. The thread on cnczone is still active. Posts go from 2012 and there are recent ones from 2016. The guy is thinking about getting back on the build. Too bad I can't see any of the old pictures. Thanks for the link.

Well! Lots of people looking but I guess nobody has any ideas about this. I guess I'll get started by myself then.

I just purchased the plans for the Demon. My friend and I have been building engines for quite some time but this will be our first V8. The question we have is; Has anyone doubled the scale of this engine and successfully built it? I'd like to get some input on this. I'd like to get started...

Thanks AussieJimG. Hey Steve are you the one with the model V8 engines in the picture? I saw those and they are really cool! Yeah those jet engines are loud! We are developing an afterburner system for the big one now. Hope to have it working by the Fort Wayne Regional Makers Fair.

Thanks! Yeah I kinna jumped into things very deeply! Try this link for some pictures on my Facebook page. All my pictures are public so anyone can see them. https://www.facebook.com/james.touchstone.3/media_set?set=a.10200875694588005.1073741826.1033835185&type=3 I will post pics here as soon...

Hello to all! Man there are some awesome people here! I've been reading articles from these forums for some time now and finally decided to sign up! I am currently in several builds. I have started a Edwards Radial 5 and an engine that is loosely based on the Henry Ford Kitchen Sink Engine...
