Back :offtopic: I was 22 when I had mine too Chris, it was a great car to drive. They have a lot of faults and the engine is difficult to work on but it still didn't detract from the experience really. I guess it depends what you're trying to compare them to. I know Mazda MX5s get good reviews but they just don't have the same character in my opinion. MR2's are supposed to be good too, no boot though! :lol: We know the MGF is really not a good car but still like them! Back on topic! Yeah Ralph, the plans are in the design section. It's quite a nice looking engine but is probably a bit fiddley to make for what it is, I will have to try it properly on some compressed air. Like you, I don't just like making stuff to existing plans. In fact, I never have done yet ... will have to give it a go though! Nick |

RDG also sell theres to be used with an airbrush set but I guess they have other uses. --- End quote --- Thanks for the link Chris! :thumbup: Look what I got coming...... :D David D |

I just can't seem to force it to happen?! Tried it a few times, but once a slight mistake appears that's is! All bets are off and the bling fairy gets a full boot in! :lol: I'll find the plans soon enough.... Still playing major catch up on topics! Ralph. |

Nice 1 David, should be useful. Any particular reason you chose the 2 cylinder one? |

I have a small compressor from a dehumidifier, which will not be man enough for the upcoming job of powering a 4 cylinder Mamod engine. ::) Soo...... Seeing how little difference there was in the prices, I bought the largest! :thumbup: David D |
