This is the next engine I will be modeling it'll take me a couple of months to get the drawings done so it will be some time before I cut metal

Hi Jadecy

That looks a nice engine,

The Manchester engine can be put in reverse with a slip eccentric, you can see the handles sticking out to the left, the flywheel is also very interesting its been fabricated, so thats going to be my challenge when I model it to try and show in the model the manufacturing methods used in the origonal.

I'll post some stills when photobucket stops playing up.

Cheers
