Thanks for taking the trouble to find the animation and video and sharing, at least we know that they run all we've got to do is prove it to ourselves. :nrocks:
Have fun
Stew

Stew,
Here is a video I found a while ago on some engines and compressors using the same type piston:
&feature=poptnjrf4a
It took me a while to find it again but your build reminded me I'd seen it somewhere.
The exaggerated claims sound flaky of course :headbang:

Just had a closer look at the drawings - I like it! Will give this one a go when get my workshop sorted.
You got one working yet Stew?
bogstandard:
I think you have hit it on the head Dave,
That chappie is a bit full of it for his own good, and is talking out of the wrong end most of the time.
Within a minute of starting, he is giving out false information about steam engine design, and he has no grasp of efficiencies, power input and output, etc. at all.
I could get a cruise liner generator to light up a small bulb, but try doing the same thing with two burning blades of grass.
