[esteam]

Hello friends.

Here is my latest project; grasshopper engine. It runs perfect. Especially when it runs slowly, I think it looks great. I hope you like it.

Videos are coming in a few minutes.

I can't embed photos and videos in this page. That's why I added links. Sorry for that. I think I do something wrong.

That is a really nice piece of work. I like the engines with all the levers and wheels, fun to watch run. With the cost of brass anymore you need to insure that.
Beautiful finish as well.

Hi Esteam

Great looking engine. - good job.

Have you tried to reduce the airsupply, and see how slow it can run, the fascinating looking, working levers looks even greater at low speed IMO

Again - a great looking project

Dear friends,

Thank you all for your great comments.

Diymania, it's not chromed, just polished aluminium. I turned my grinder to a polishing motor. And I'm using it to polish all parts.

Nick G, I found the plans in my hard disk drive. I don't remember where or when did I save them into it. "Chapter 37 - Grasshopper Engine" is the title of the plans. I think, that pages are from a book kinda thing

Mogens, You're absolutely right. When it runs slowly as it can, it looks better. I've tried the reduce air and it's running slower in the first movie than the second one. And looking better. May be it can run slower, I'm gonna make several trials.

Best regards
