This is a very interesting looking engine. I've been following along, and have somehow not posted to mention how much I've been enjoying your build.

Looking forward to more!

I did of course attempt a test run, but had no succes.

I went back to the CAD, and found some minor errors on the steamvalves and the lenght of the piston rods, small adjustments has to be made, but not a big job.
 
Great engine and build.Am watching a similar construct by kvom of westbury design elsewhere here.Have been beating my head against a wall trying to find some plans to build one of these with no results.suggestions anyone????Have drawn a blank in the archives here and can't seem to get Paddelducks site ,which has thread of the same engine,to acknowledge my registration attempt.I'm kind of a latecomer here with all this stuff and may not be going the proper route but the lesson's in the learning and I'm still trying
 
Mogens, nice to see the updates on this project. Its a fascinating engine and should have lots of interesting motion to watch while running.

Regards,
Bill
