Hi Steve.

It's a Huxtable. Made in Australia.

Came to me, brand new. As a swap for a 3 cylinder Mamod, I'd made from parts........  :thumbup:

Have a look here......  http://madmodder.net/index.php?topic=3356.0

Darn! Couldn't you break it or something so we could see one of your great project write-ups, and all the parts and pieces laid out and improved?

ps. I'm very partial to mill style horizontal hot air engines. I built one for my father a few years ago, and would like to do another. Yours is a beauty.
Stilldrillin:
Sorry Steve.

They're not easily broken! The only other one I know of, is in Australia.

It has been played with, for more than 10 years........ http://modelsteam.myfreeforum.org/about65134.html&highlight=huxtable

1" bore. 1" stroke power piston. 2" stroke displacer.

Anything you need to know, just ask.  :thumbup:

Looks very nice David. I have to say, I prefer to watch you breathe new life into engines as well.

The movie in your link is really nice! That's a great engine, and it reminds me of plans I have in an old book somewhere that once caught my fancy. It had a cast base like yours (though probably iron. It did have a separate power piston, and if i remember correctly the displacer cylinder was finned by threading. If i remember right the text said it was big enough to power a small lathe! I kinda take that with a grain of salt -- but ya never know unless you try things.
