Post pictures of your engines!

This is mostly so Fixittt can see my wobbler but i would like to see photos of your COMPLETED engines.


OK Fixittt, this is the wobbler. Easy to build and very few parts. Free plans are all over the net. This one is made of solid brass but aluminum can be used. The steam tubes are stainless but copper can be used. I run it on compressed air for the kids once in a while. There is 3 or 4 thousand things i would change but that is part of the learning process. You will never get good at making parts if you dont make parts.

Here's a couple that I made several years ago and I am in the process of building the Edwards 5 Radial.

Nice inline 8! The slide show was great! Something everyone can appreciate!

Just like a nice miniature engine......poetry to hear and a work of art to gaze upon!

I have a Morton M5 Radial I have been building on, just no pics and my camera just died.

Other than that I have done some rebuilds on model airplane engines, like con-rods, carbs and prop nuts. Modified a couple weed wacker engines for R\C to glow, including mounts and prop adapters.

I also have the Mizer Sterling low temp engine in the works.

Just so little time to get back to them after moving to a new home. The shop is at least 90 percent functional, so hopefully in a few months I'll be back into them. It'll be nice to get the rest of the equipment out of the Garage.

Sorry about the camera. I would love to see your work. The morton is a nice looking engine. Castings are a little pricy but worth the extra coin.

Not as complex, but i have plans for the 370 pip, 3 cylinder. Looking forward to that. I am thinking of springing for ageless engines 9 cylinder plans. If the pip goes well, i'll try the 9. Would like to also take a crack at the ken hurst V8. Again the castings are alot of money, but worth it when finished.

sub-assembly just to check fit. The green things are old ear plugs – needed something to keep tension on the push rods.

Looks great!! Do you cut your own gears?

[woodzy]

I've made everthing except the fastners and I had a friend turn the cast iron jugs.

Hi woodzy

Very nice work woodzy, what is the displacement of the engine.
Have you had it running yet?

[woodzy]

Not running yet, I have about 100 hours in it and another 100 hours to go (estimated). I hope to have it completed by the NAMES show in Toledo late April. It is 32cc.

Hi woodzy

I am in the process of building a Edwards 5 Radial, I have about 150 hrs in it and a whole lot more to go.
Keep us posted on your progress, I would like to see it run when it's finished.

Here is a link to photos of what I have finished so far.
