A most remarkable engine! Although i think i would maybe have found another base for it? I think that the one on is slightly to high visually to "work" for me. Runs beautifully though :nrocks: |

Thanks for all your lovely, positive comments Chaps! They're all very much appreciated..... :thumbup: Finally managed some productive shop time, over the last two days! :ddb: :ddb: Experimenting with the candles, had shown it needed more air holes in the base. Also, a larger burner hole. Thankfully, I could easily replicate the original set up, and do some more chopping. No pics, sorry! :palm: I made a burner tray, from a piece of 2" x 1" alloy tube, slit down the narrow side......... Locates securely over the sill step. When thoroughly warmed up, (30mins +), produces a rip snorting 170rpm....... I can leave a single central candle, for slow running. Around 80rpm....... And, the final video........ Very pleased with the outcome! :D David D |
