    new twin

    Here is the twin I am planning to build. I made the connecting rods, valve rods and flywheels so far.

    As this is in the Steam Engine Forum I bet it is a steam engine!

    That's a modern touch to a very old type of engine. And why not as long as it looks nice. And yours may. Try to make the shape of the cylinder block in style with the rest, and it could be very nice. As it is it looks...well just square. The outside shape
    will not affect it's running abilities anyway.

    And it won't crash if you build it right.
