Nice work.

Pretty cool, but why do I hear my 5 yr old doing in your video ;D. I'll have to read the build log because I think I want to build one.

 

[NickG]

Thanks! Yeah sorry about that, an excited 5 year old and a 2 1/2 year old i the background ready to go to grandma's! :big:

Very nice. That kind of engine is always interesting. Sounds great too.

 

[NickG]

Thanks Zee. Would definitely recommend people to try it, prob not as a first project but once have got a few steam / air engines under their belt.

Cheers Bob, might have to try it again tonight, I love these engines! Still got to do an i.c. like yours though, a hit & miss is my ultimate goal!

GOOD JOB!

Thanks guys,

Rick, good idea with the graphite piston - seems to be working a treat so far. Infact, I'm tempted to make one for my Jan Ridders flame gulper now!
