Hi,
I have just finished a three cylinder steam engine which is fitted with reversing gear and a valve to help warm the engine up. The engine is one of several which have been built as R&D for a boat hull I was given. The engine is designed to either be fitted with a single propeller shaft or twin contra rotating ones.
Tin Hull.
R&D Engines.
Mk5 engine.
Video under air.
Video under steam.
Timing of gears.
An engine for the boat with cylinders with a slightly larger bore will be made for the hull.
Regards Tony.
