This is my first model engine. I got the plans from http://www.steves-workshop.co.uk/steammodels/simpleoscil/simpleoscil.htm. They were very detailed and easy for a first timer like myself. I did have to convert the metric measurements to standard, but other than that it is pretty close to the plans. I was surprised by how tedious a task this was to complete. I have a lot of respect and appreciation for those of you who have built much more complicated models. It runs great at 5-40 p.s.i. of air pressure and will turn about 1400 r.p.m. @ max. pressure. All the machine work was done with a Taig lathe, which is awesome.
