Randall Cox's Open Column Six Engine

This is the six cylinder version of my Open Column Twin. It was designed and built by Randall Cox and was featured in a two-part build article in Issues 1 and 2 of Model Engine Builder. I first saw Randall's engine at the GEARS model engine show in Portland, OR in 2006. I loved the engine and decided to build my twin and pattern after Randall's design. I'm now thinking a 3 cylinder inline version would also be pretty neat.
This is the first video I've seen of this engine. Randall emailed me a couple of days ago with a link to the video, so I thought I would post it for the HMEM group.

Very nice. I like that sound. It almost sounds like it's blowing bubbles when ideling down.
Thanks for posting.

I'm with Bernd on that,
Lovely engine, lovely sound...like a 30's side-valve car engine.
Thanks

It must be a great feeling to see one of your projects taken up and extended by someone else. And it is a great engine. Congratulations Chuck.
