Hi folks,

I was looking after a little, not so common, steam engine, I could build...then I found Brians Thread about a Hit and Miss steam engine, inclucing the great plans, I liked the overall look of it, so I decided to build it.

But for fun (we will see...I hate myself right now :D), I will build a scaled down version...only 3/4 of the original plans.

Here are the first parts:

The Clutch, and the arms with the weigths (milled from one solid piece of brass, with the help of my cnc milling machine). The small pins are 1x5mm

Very compact :)

Tomorrow I will start machining the flywheels.

greetings
