Been hanging around here for a while now and I must say I have learned a lot "and have a lot more to learn" but never got around to saying hello. I am a diesel mechanic by trade and I love old engines, a friend introduced me to model engineering about 2 years ago and I am addicted since.
Hear is a link to my engines, they are a bit rough around the edges but they run.

Howdy there, Bob.
Looks like a nice engine to me.
I'm new to small engines and haven't built one yet.
From all the studying I have done here I see my list growing for the tooling I need to get first.
I can see this becoming an addiction. :hDe:

Greetings Vince, from SE USA.

Where is Eire?

Your engines look good to me, beauty is in the eye of the beholder. I rarely see a model engine I dislike.
 
Great engine Vince. Runs great. Welcome to the forum
 
Thanks for all the kind words everyone, for those who do not know Éire is irish for Ireland.

Hi,
Very nice engine builds :)
Is there a way to contact you directly? (regarding the loyal cycle engine)
I'm struggling with some design problems with a project very similar to what you have done
And it looks like you have nailed it :)

Cheers
Boaz
 
I love the variation on Henry’s Kitchen Sink Engine! Great work-around on cooling, carburetion, valves, and of course hit-n-miss operation.

Nice bit of engineering there, congratulations on a great runner!
