And while I'm at it, here's a video of my two cylinder launch solenoid engine. Just click on the picture for video. Ralph http://s1050.photobucket.com/albums/s405/flyingtractors1/?action=view¤t=Vert2.mp4 |

Very nice indeed Ralph. They look and act the same but without all the steam/air to find! :zap: That stove looks very intricate! Is that a scratch build too? |
| flyingtractors1:
Thanks. Solenoid engines really do operate very much like steam engines but on batteries instead of steam, and switches take the place of valves to regulate the flow of power. They make nice, easy and clean desk models. Just flick the switch, and away it goes. No, I didn't make the stove; it's from another collection used to complete a diorama of wood splitting and ax honeing featuring the Treadle Wheel Grinder. Ralph |
