Hi I have posted some pictures of this engine in my "casting brass" thread. I thought it would be a good idea to do a build log of this engine. I share my shop with a good friend , so any rough bits are his work :D :D :D This is the basic speck of the engine Bore 1.875", Stroke 2.000" Rated 2hp 400RPM 120 PSI Stephensen Reverse Double Acting V twin The drawings are imperial desighned to be built without castings The base plate milled out of 10 mm plate (drawings use 1/4 but i had this to hand) Using thicker plate caused some problems later. Getting the base plate & back plate at 90 degrees proved difficult I will find some of the early pictures & post them |

As this engine is about half way built the build log will be in fast speed :D :D :D This is how it should look Cylinders were made from 2 large pices of steel (to do it again i would cast bronze) Had the old bantam lathe working hard Tomorrow it will be the steam ports John |
