Elmer's Grasshopper

[weez]

Here is the start of Elmer's grasshopper I am building. This is my third engine after successfully making Elmer's Wobbler and Standby. After making those two which are quite similar, I wanted to do something that was quite different and I like the way the grasshopper looks when running so I thought I would give it a try.

Nice!

I have built a few Elmers Engines....they are the best in my opinion. The Grasshopper is on my list though...yours is looking good!

Looks great!
The Grasshopper was my 2d engine and still one if my favorite builds.

Here is a small update on my grasshopper. I got the crankshaft, beam, and leg done. They have not been cleaned up yet so they are a little rough.
