Itowbig,
Nice going. Congratulations on your running engine. :bow: It looks good to me. Thanks for sharing your work.

Cheers,

Congratulations on your successful build, it looks great! :bow:

I bet its a good feeling to see it run! :)

With each build the knowledge and experience you acquire makes the next one that much easier.

I look forward to seeing your next project.

Great stuff, Sid. Thanks for posting the pictures. You now have joined the ranks of model engine builders all over the world who have built this from my plans. No kidding---I get emails from Australia, Indonesia, South America, the United Kingdom, even South Africa and South America from people who have built this engine.---Brian
 
ok maybe if i did this right there should be a video. flywheel is a bit of a wooble but it still needs work im missing a few things.
so here ya go guys (ya ya my video taking is not the greatest)
as too whats next im going to try a tiny little dual wobler ive already broken two tiny drill bits

 
Well I think it looks great Tow. Don't change it, I have the first engine I built, I call it the ugly duckling but it runs and so I know how you feel. Time to do a happy dance.

I was talking of taking it all apart and redoing somethings now that I am slowly getting somewhat better at this, my wife said not to,,hold it as an example of how much progress I have learned.

Anyway its nice and love the beam engines.
