After to agree with Eric. Amazing looking engine. I didn't get any sound though. How about you Eric? Bernd |

Bernd, you might want to first d/l the videos to your machine, then use Media Player Classic (if you donīt have it, itīs a free d/l from http://www.cccp-project.net/ and many other sites. 6 Mb. They call it there "Combined Community Codec Pack", it includes a lot of codecs, and some 3 video players) to watch. It will play most any video file, with all features. Including mpg. |

Achim, you cheated!! You went from having a bit of ignition trouble with your micro switches, to a completed engine with a float carburetor, a glass fuel tank, and a beautiful mount, and prop, all without showing one bit to your mates on line, how could you? Did you find a new love who also happens to be a machinist? Does she cook and make you happy as well? All joking aside, you've done a major jump from where you left off, to the beautiful piece of equipment you have before us now. I was wondering if you would end up with a float type carburetor, in the end, they are always the best for good running, including variable speed that is reliable. You have fine taste with wood and metal and combining the two for beauty, and your penchant for offsetting brass with aluminum and offsetting aluminum with brass does you proud, it really makes a fine looking engine and draws the eye to it immediately. Having just downloaded your two videos, I have to say it is one of the best sounding model engines I've ever heard. I give credit for that to the float carburetor, and the full control you've built into it, giving the engine good mixture control across the rpm band. A fine finish to an inspiring project, I am in personal awe :jaw: :bugeye: :bow: mad jack |

My first post ever at this forums, but what a thread to "start at"! Except all droped yaws and well deserved compliments by others I must add that your website really inspired me to "get started for real" in my own shop. To be honest, I am very spoiled I think when it comes to space, machines (even if old) etc. I just have to take my time to start somewhere. And what can be better then start with tools and equipment, making it work as intended or maybe even better. :dremel: Thanks for sharing and inspire all of us. :thumbup: |
