Hi All,
New to this site, so a big hi to everyone.... ;D
I have been lurking around for a while looking for plans for an IC engine to build.
For as long as I can remember (which is quite a long time) I wanted to build my own IC engine, for no other reason other than, cos I can...!
So now I have got myself a lathe (Warco WM-180) very happy with it and all working well and now have a mill on order (Warco WM-14) I am ready to start finding an engine to build. I would like to think my engineering skills are reasonable and always up for a challenge, and even if it takes me ages I will finish what I start.
So, what am I looking for. I am after plans for a 4 stroke petrol (spark ignition) single cylinder (at a push maybe twin), nothing to big and nothing stupidly small, static engine, more for display than anything else, so must look smart.
I think I found what I am looking for with this, "Webster Engine Works Single Cylinder 4 Stroke Gas Engine"
Looks good and plenty of built examples about, but before I commit to building one, any other suggestions / recommendations...?
Thanks
Dave
