Hi again Fatih! Firstly, I have to say that, your shop is amazing and really well equipped. I hope you will make nice engines on there. Thanks for your nice words about my works and as I mentioned before, I am waiting you impatiently to making and finalizing v8 engine. It seems, process will...

Hi Fatih, nice to see more Turkish members here. Welcome, and I am curious about your engine. Is it your first project?

Thanks for useful informations Jens, meanwhile, your steam boat looks nice. Apparently, you used it in water before. I agree with you about engine's torque - propeller dimensions ratio. I know, making a real marine engine is a serious job and needs some calculations and experience but I have...

Another important issue about this Marine Engine Project is a propeller. I decided to add a propeller to this engine as a model item. I mean this propeller will not be functional principally. Hence, I don't have to use a rustproof screw shaft for it. Casting Screw Propeller: Generally, real...

Actually, these two chemicals (sulphuric acid and hdyrogen peroxide) are trading in Turkish grocery stores freely. Watered Sulphuric acid as closet cleaner and hydrogen peroxide (known as perhidrole) as hair color lightener. Because of this, we don't need any licence to use these chemicals...

Thank you for your Helps.. Devrim

Congratulations. Wonderful work ! Probably my next project. But the smaller one. :)

Thanks for your nice comments guys. Swifty, how did you embed video from youtube ? I seeked on hmem forums and I did everything but didn't success. Could you please write code from your thread ?

Thanks for comments and informations Mechanicboy. Because of my restricted production abilities, I can't make castings, welding or hard soldering. My shop is in my appartment (sixth floor) and unfortunately we don't have any balcony. As I mentioned, my Cylinder made from steel currently and...

Thank you for nice comments :) Actually I want to work much more on this project. But I have to go work every day. This project made on my weekends. Flywheel: I tought too much on flywheel because I didn't want to superficial job via only machining to block steel. Therefore, I decided to...

Thank you for your comments. Cylinder is made from steel but actually I dont know material number properly. Piston does not exist just now, but it will be brass.

Push Rod and Engine Base Secondly I machined push rod by lathe and mill. Crankshaft beds are made from brass. After a few thoughts about engine base, for making base without casting, I decided to make engine base from multiple parts that mounted to each others via bolts. For this purpose...

Hello again, my third project is double acting steam engine with reverse gear. I found some plans about this project on an old (1947) Popular Science Magazine. Link: 1947 Popular Science Vertical Steam Engine Actually I like Stuart No 1 engines but importing casting kits to Turkey is expensive...

Absolutely ! Double acting steam engine started after finishing first one. Coming soon on "a work in progress" title. :)

My Second project about Steam is Mini Steam Whistle. This project finished couple months ago and works with nice sound. This project is based on my own plans after seeked and drawn numerous draughts. I thought, "how can I make this project by only machining without castings" and then I draw hand...

Hello Everyone. In spite of it finished months ago, I get around to publish this project just now. I found this project on internet forums. (I don't remember which one is that, but project link is: http://www.john-tom.com/MyPlans/Steam%20Engines/PopMechanicsEngine1963.pdf) Technical Drawings...

Two lathes on photographs are same lathe actually. These are different angle of views.

Thanks, I tried to organise fine. Photographs are old actually, guess shop is better nowadays. Sorry for poor photo quality. Devrim.

Thanks Tin.

Thanks Chuck, Glad to be here. Hope, I would make more complicated engines in future. Maybe I think to add electronic control devices like android phone by wifi to engines or mechanical vehicles that equipped with steam engines. That's an idea just now. There are much more things can be...
