    Stuart 10V almost done

    i would suggest completing this engine w/ a reversing linkage and the water pump. two nice little projects to keep you busy for the summer.

    got a bit side tracked the last year. perhaps we could resume this thread and build something collectively? i have yet to build anything IC, so i'd love to start there. i have so many plans, let me have a look and post a few of them.

    Stuart Sirius Firefly

    I was told this is a '43-'45 Sirius. Runs exceptionally well. It's quite a beast. I'm asking 1000 CAD (plus shipping) i hope i'm not being unreasonable. i was told they tend to go for 1100 US. i'm not adverse to a trade. thank you

    i don't recall mentioning anything about using a 10D for a launch. i don't think ppl use stuarts (other than the sirius) for this sort of thing....at least i wouldn't. much better options out there for sure. i am looking for a hull 36" or better for a project. i have boilers and engines, so i...

    if we went w/ castings, we could build for ourselves and sell one to cover the costs. this is what i believe to be a good way to go about it. if there's 3 of us, buy 4 kits and sell one to pay for the kits (or at least offset the cost by a bit). i'd like to build a Stuart 10D or a Stuart Beam...

    let's have a look at this sandy boiler. perhaps i could help. i guess you'll need a steam engine to run if you're building a boiler. perhaps a steam engine would be a could project?

    rotary table is a must have for sure, but don't forget the indexing head for gear cutting if you're interested in that end of things. i have cut gears and look for any excuse to do so, but not many of my current projects requires any gearing :( i have casting equipment as well. what...
