Great work! Congratulations.

Sorry old chap but I have not a clue, perhaps the administrator can help!

I have sent email by private letter. Thanks for the explanation and added photo. David

Bob, I have been following this thread with great interest. Thanks for sharing. I would like to make an engine of this type. I am very much a learner - how does the wiggler work to align work in the four jaw chuck? Also how is it made? Thanks for any help - DW

Mikelkie - thanks for the thought::)

Tony - it looks good at this point, will be following closely. I hope you are able to get shop time. I wish I could find one of those mechanical hacksaws, since I am physically and dynamically challenged - the piece would be unrecognizable after the hacksaw massacre. I have been unable to...

Keep it coming. I am enjoying since this is on my bucket list. DW

My latest construction. Year: 2017

Peter, I am loving your work :) especially your inventiveness and work arounds. It is providing me with some great ideas! Thanks for sharing. DW

Peter, An incredible piece of work. I am faced with a similar situation on a smaller scale. The rotary table is my nemesis! Thanks for sharing your ongoing build.

Quite an undertaking - looks as though you did well. Congrats, now onto even more complex things! I am enjoying this since I am faced with similar problems with a "flying wheel".

Rather exotic appearing at this point! Cannot wait to see the end result.

That is a very smooth , cool engine. Beautiful work. Can't wait to see it in a boat. Would also love to see a boat build - a particular interest of mine.

Greetings Deeferdog, looks like a real challenge you have taken on. I will be following along, good work thus far as I see it. My only problem is that your workshop is too darned clean and spacious:o Cymro

An interesting challenge! Flywheel repurposed from another project. Year: 2016 Model: Beam Engine designed by Brian Rupnow Engine: Single cylinder dual action Engine Modifications: Exhaust porting Transmission: n/a

I have been seriously questioning your statement "only a beginner" this work is way and above any "Beginner". Who you trying to confuse"

I would love to see the build thread for the motorized hacksaw. I hope you are making it without welding. I have no capability to weld and I do need a hacksaw!!

I have just completed Brian's Beam. To me it was a challenge - but it worked out well in the end. I had to make several adjustment changes. The exhaust porting is still not to my liking. The flywheel could not be made on my small lathe. But she does run fairly well on steam. I will be...

Try using the shellac glue with a small spigot mounted on the lathe. See the article by Tony Bird on this site.

Grrreattt job Tony!!!!. I love the layout. But most of all the engine and its slow revolutions. Looks incredibly real scale. SWMBO did a great job on the engine house as well. :thumbup:
