I was so taken by the twin cylinder Potty Overcrank Wall Engine designed and built by Sbwhart http://www.homemodelenginemachinist.com/index.php?topic=12367.0 that I may attempt to design and build a single cylinder Overcrank engine. One or two years ago I built my version of Elmers #33 mill engine, and it turned out quite fine. http://www.homemodelenginemachinist.com/index.php?topic=7340.0 (That was the engine that powers my Pumpjack.) It was a double acting single cylinder engine, with a slide valve arrangement similar to the valve arrangement on the Overcrank engine built by sbwhart. I will probably plaegerize the design of both the aformentioned engines and add some unique design elements of my own. Although I doubt that my work will ever approach that of Elmer Verbourg or Stew's, my engines do seem to run reasonably well. I will be simplifying the design, and configuring it to work with my favourite #5-40 fasteners. The Elmers#33 engine had a 1/2" bore and 1" stroke, while the Overcrank engine by sbwhart had a 20mm dia bore and a 36mm stroke. (Roughly 3/4" dia. and 1 1/2" stroke). I don't like to work on very small parts, however I don't want to design an engine so large that the modellers with smaller capacity lathes and mills are unable to build from my plans. The design will be done in Imperial units----(I can work in metric, but I'm much more comfortable with inches.) I will design in Solidworks 3D software, but the published drawings will be saved and posted here in a .pdf format. Welcome aboard, hope you enjoy the ride.----Brian
