Hey steam guys, check out Old-Biker-UK's cool wall engine.

I gotta build one of those.

Thanks biker UK.

The rest of the site is worth a good look as well . Did you see the article on the Geometric Chuck . WOW. :bow:

Rob-

He has lots of cool stuff on his site.

I did not spot the Geometric chuck, mainly because I don't have the slightest idea what one is or looks like.

I don't know what one is either but i like what he has achieved with it. It must have taken him ages.

Rob......

I started looking into wall engines when Pat posted a collection of engravings some time ago. In that collection was a wall engine that led me to this:
http://www.lilienthal-museum.de/olma/edampf.htm which is the original of the model linked to by http://www.eckartkercher.de/index_seiten/eliane.htm.

A casting kit is available here http://www.modelmakingsupplies.co.uk/stationary-engines.htm

I'm tempted but I would really rather build from barstock.
