| jonesie:
here is the start of my popcorn engine designed by stew. also thanks to brian for mock up. the flywheel l i think turned out real good. took some time to bend spokes . need to put radius on cylinder and crosshead. tough stuff done so now should go fast |

looking good :thumbup: Did you silver solder the fly wheel ? I particularly like the look of it, spokes look to be more of a curve than mine. :clap: :clap: :clap: :clap: :clap: Stew |

jonesie, it's looking fantastic good, but I have to ask you please don't load up picture that size, it's very hard to have a good look. :Doh: |
| doubleboost:
Looking very good I like the shape of the flywheel :thumbup: :thumbup: John |

stew i silver soldered the spokes in the center hub, them turned the o.d. to a light press and used 620 locktite into the bore.had to make the spokes twice as i had trouble getting them to solder, opened the holes up .003 and then pickled it all for a couple of days in vinegar . then used a larger tip to get the right heat, second time a charm. hope to get more done this week, need to cut the radius on the two parts.i also need to get some fire brick to help in silver soldering.jonesie |
