Hi guys,
I finished very small live steam four-cylinder oscilating engine (weight 28 gram) - see attached pictures and video. It's made for my 25cm (10 inch) steam pinnace. Complete building process you can see at http://www.steamer.cz/mod3_pin.html

What is the bore size? and what size are the smallest screws you used to hold it together?

Jirik92,

What are the dimensions of your engine? scratch.gif

It must have been very difficult to work on such a small scale.

Good job.

It have 32 x 35 mm (without pipes) and 20 mm height. It was REALY difficult work, because I have to use +3 dioptres glasses all time to see something ::).
Regards to all, Jiri
