Pendulum 2-stroke engine

[Jan Ridders]

Hi all interested,
After about 1 year with some health problems I have now again designed and manufactured a model engine. It is a rather crazy but unique model of a 2-stroke engine that has no flywheel but a pendulum.
See the YouTube video:

and the page on my website:

I have again made a CAD drawing package that is available for every interested person. A request can be made via my website.
Kind regards from the Netherlands,
Jan Ridders

Hi Jan, what a fascinating pendulum . I like it . Looks deceivingly simple but it must have been test of your patience . Thank you for showing.

Amazing engine! This one looks like it might be tricky to build somehow...
