The Rainbows Engine.......
tom osselton:
looks and runs good, I haven't looked into these type of engine yet but it is on the list.
Stilldrillin:
Thanks Tom! :beer:
When you get to the appropriate part of the list, be careful. These things can drive you to distraction......... :scratch:

Ya know David, I like the noisy part of that engine. Gives it some character (well, more character).
Nice job, it looks factory!

Stilldrillin:
Thanks Eric.
I've left a couple of borderline loose pivots. Just to add character....... :smart:
Made some more progress.
A new left hand, half shaft. The original had been filed, enthusiastically.
Brass spacers, to position the crank throws.
Washers between moving parts.
And four, healthier looking nuts & washers, to hold the assembly together........
A new, better fitting replacement piston. To replace the undersize replacement(?) piston......
Opening out the cooling fins, for the larger o/d hot cap.
Hoping I don't finish up with a set of washers........
That fits, nicely.........
The engine is now finished. Just needing a new base board.
I found this redundant Maiwald base. Should be able to plug the holes, and tidy it.......
Not too long, now...... :)
Thanks for looking in! :thumbup:
