I have been challenged by my son. He would like me to build a small engine that could be run with a small CO2 cartridge. It will be used as a paper weight on his desk at work and be used as a bragging tool of his "old mans" skills. They really know how to get to you, don't they.
I was thinking of a version of Elmer's Tiny or Kerzel's CO2-V engine or something like those.
My question to you is: has anyone come up with a way to use those small CO2 cartridges for this purpose. There must be a safe way to contain the cartridge, puncture it and regulate the air. I would like to be able to hide this mechanism in the base for the engine.
Would those small cartridges even work for this application? ??? ??? ???
