A bit of horizontal.

I don't have any engine projects going at the moment, so thought I would show one I built some years back. The flywheels are 3" diameter, 3/4" bore, 1" stroke, double acting. This shows it running on about 15 psi, then reduced to 1 psi. I've run it on steam only once, but I don't have an oiler for it, so generally use air.

And I should have use a tripod for the camera.

Nice engine, I like the forked conrod and pedestal trunk guide arrangement. Nice to see it run at a gentle tick over.

AmazingGood range of speed for only 4 Fourteen PSI of pressure difference. Very nice work! :bow:

Ack. That's a typo in my first post. It should have read 15 psi to 1 psi, NOT 5 psi to 1 psi. Sorry for the goof! Edited the first post.

Edited mine, too. ;D Still, a great-looking engine, I'd like to see more of it.
