Follow the link. I think you'll find this inteesting. Curved Flywheel (http://www.findsminimodelhotbulbengines.dk/Curved%20spoke%20flywheel.html)
Check out his bending jig for making the curved spokes. :bugeye:

Thanks for posting that Bernd. That spoke bending jig is something that anyone should be able to complete in a couple of hours, even you and me. :lol: :lol:
He certainly does have a lot of very nice engines that he has built. There is certainly a lot more there than just how to build a curved spoke flywheel if one clicks on the "back" link at the top of the page. :ddb: :ddb:
Cheers :beer:

I figured people would go through his site once there. And your right, he does have nice engines and there is more to see that might get the :proj: started in some one, eh? :beer:

I wonder how many of the 103 people that have read this post have actually saw that spoke bending jig. It certainly hasn't drawn many comments. :lol: :lol:

Don,
I think sometimes the simplest method or procedure baffales people or maybe they think, "It can't be that easy. There's got to be a more complicated way of doing that." :lol: :lol:

Don,
The jig pic could have been much clearer than it is......
I assumed the shank was inserted into the post, and the "Cold Iron Blacksmith" hammered it around the former, until it would curve no more.......
Or, am I wrong? :scratch:

David,
I'd say you "hit the curved spoke with the hammer" alright on that one. :lol:

Yup, the spoke jig is muy cool for sure but did you check out the videos of his engines running? :bugeye:
