First Build 1/8 galloway

[fallnhorse]

I wanted to make an engine since i was a little kid, ever since my neighbor built one. Finally got the chance to buy a lathe and mill this January. I went all in and built an IC for my first engine. I'm so happy it runs. Still need to finish the governor and it's a little rough. But i'm so proud. Hope you like it.;D

Edit: It has a Z1 spark plug and electronic Tim-6 ignition. Once i got the valve to seal up it ran good but that was a trip getting them to seal.

Congrats on a runner!

That must have been quite a challenge as a first project.

The Galloways a nice little engines.

I like it plenty, and I am proud of you. I too have wanted to build one since I was a kid - never got over it and still want one. I'm still hopeful that some day I still can build one. Ralph

Congratulations. My hat is off to you fellows who build the 1/8 Galloway as that is tiny stuff.

I've built the 1/4 Galloway.

Regards,

Chuck

Congratulations on a great runner. Can't wait to see it once you finish it up.

My wife, Joy, says it sounds very cute.
