Phllip Duclos Bio

[chipsoboy]

For those who may not have seen it, here is a short writeup about the late Mr. Duclos. As most of you probably know, he was one of the greats in our "hobby". I have greatly enjoyed his articles in HSM and have build several of his engines. The website shows some of his work that was donated to Craftsmanship Museum. I am intrigued by the mysterious oscillating 2-stroke. I think I'll try to reverse engineer that from the photos so I have yet another project in the queue.

Incredible craftmanship. I found the collection to be very emotional. Awe, inspiration and intimidation. The Root family deserves a huge thank you for sharing this mans creations. Not many of us would be willing to give up such a collection.

Thanks for this information. I've always liked his designs. I have made a couple from his book. TJ
