Gerhard Olivier:
Just to let u all know I finally made a runner. And broke the crankshaft and fixed it again.
The first one was 2 part fixed with superglue??? My four year old loved the engine so much it did not last an hour. I then made the replacement by turning it out of as solid piece in the four jaw chuck--seems fine so far.
FLywheel is 16mm diam and 4.5 wide.(forgot to put somthing for scale.)

Good little engine. Sounds like your 4 year old has got him a new toy. Now you are going to have to build another one for yourself. :lol: :lol:
Cheers :beer:

Good one Gerhard :clap: :clap:
Your young son will treasure that engine, I've still got the steam engine my father gave me a long long time ago.
Have fun

Gerhard Olivier:
THanks for the nice comments.
Nick plan with the oversize base was to have a controll valve in the middle of the pipe. Dont think Sean would let me have it back to make the valve.
Don I hope to make one of my own design later but a lot of tools on top of the list.
