Here are the first two engines I have completed. They are Elmer's Wobbler and Standby. I am pretty happy with how they turned out and they both run pretty well.

Weez, those are both looking great! Glad to hear you were successful. Elmer certainly had a knack for very approachable designs.

Good looking engines Weez, I feel sure they will be the start of a great collection. And now that you can do it, they make great gifts.

Great effort Weez. Thanks for sharing
 
Very nice indeed Weez. I'm working on that same wobbler engine myself right now. Er - sort of. I get a bit distracted sometimes. Anyway - your quality of workmanship is great!

I like what you did with the base on the wobbler. I might have to pro actively and non fiscally adopt that idea. (Rip it off without paying for it. :D)
 
Very nice work Randy. Thanks for sharing.

Regards,
Rudy
 
Thanks for the compliments. It seems as though each piece I make comes out a little nicer than the previous piece will less effort required. I guess that means I am learning something.

Its a little late but here are the videos of them running.

Nice, very nice! I've liked most of Elmer's engines for a long time. My favorite is still "Fancy" can't remember the number.
