Another Rider Runs !!

[mh121]

Hello all, I have just finished putting together the Rider Ericsson Pumping engine that I have been building. It appears to run ok and pumps well. I had a little trouble at first trying to get it to run well, it turned out that there was not enough clearance in the parts and as we all know friction kills these engines stone dead. Anyway heres a video of it running, just a few little finishing touches to get it up to scratch.

Cheers,
MartinH

I don't think I've seen one of these run before "MH" and I'm amazed at the quietness, excellent work and runs like a clock.

Fascinating to watch it run, a really nicely finished engine.
