Nemett 15cc 4 stroke engine

--- Quote from: John Stevenson on August 07, 2011, 08:40:56 AM ---OK been and collected two boxes of books, there were four boxes but two are still hiding so not sure what is in those as they were never undone.
 
So at the moment I have 5 books and 6 sets of plans all brand new except that one book has all the material sizes highlighted in highlighter pen.
 
One thing that puzzles me is all the drawings are clearly marked Nemett 15S - 15cc SOHC Four Stroke Engine, sheets 1 to 15.
 
However the book clearly states "Constructing the Lynx"
"Note: This is designed to accompany the full A3 engine drawings. It does not contain any drawings. "
 
So is the Lynx and the Nemett the same engine ? Looks to me as it is because I can't see any differences but it would be nice to know.

Hi Wheeltapper, that is a great looking engine to build, and while I have often shared your lament of shortage of tooling, remember, someone was making engines when he had to build a lathe first.  There is a way around every possible stumbling block, and while rotary tables are nice they are luxuries, not necessities.  I have used a level on my three jaw chuck to use my lathe as a shaper to cut splines for a PTO clutch in my tractor, many people have shown the use of "dropping verticals" off a line drawn at an angle to a line representing the circumference of something, and divided it very accurately that way.  Many rotary tables have been made using only common taps and constructed jigs.  When you make tooling for one project, you will find it is used long after that project is finished, typically.   :beer:  Cheers, mad jack

Hi Jack
thanks for the kind words.
I'm the first to subscribe to the "making tools to make tools" way, but sometimes don't you just want to build the damn engine. :lol: :lol:

I should get the material for the cylinder liner and crankcase tomorrow so there should soon be some more pics.




Note the words' should' and 'soon' in the above . :doh:
