Hello, I am new here.
« on: December 12, 2016, 01:16:15 AM »
Hello, I am new here, Name is Allen, I am building my very first Flame eater / Vacuum engine, My own design, Can't be 100 percent sure it will ever run on its own, But I have never given up on anything I have started before so this should be interesting, Thanks for accepting me on this great site

Hi Allen,
Welcome to the forum!
I've never built a flame eater myself, but someday, I plan to. But there are a lot of people here who have, and I'm sure they'd be happy to offer thoughts if you ever need any advice.

Hi Allen welcome to MEM.

One of my first engines was the Poppin flame eater engine.
Good luck with your project and unless there are pictures it probably didn't happen.  :lolb:

Hello Allen!

Good luck on the flame eater. You'll get it running!

Welcome to the hobby.
It is 'Attachments and other options' that you are looking for. Not entirely intuitive :-(. The [img] item you already found is for externally hosted photos.

Don't confuse activity with progress

Welcome to MEM Allen. Looks like you got the picture thing figured out. We love pictures..... as I'm sure you've already noticed.

The head looks good.
