My version of Elmers #19.
« on: July 23, 2017, 04:48:34 PM »
After recently seeing a Elmer's  #19 build on here I decided to post my modified version. I am not sure if I remember how to add a video but will try. On mine the main frame is twice as wide and all dimensions have been changed including bore and stroke. Runs really well and is very smooth at high rpm's.      Gary[youtube1]https://youtu.be/3yWCXGNnFQA[/youtube1]

That does look nice and runs very smoothly. I think I overlooked that one the last time I surfed through Elmer's designs.

Thanks for posting,

Shop Shoe,  I doubt you have seen one of Elmer's plans that look like mine. For those of you not familiar with his #19 I should have said his is a single cylinder and I decided to add another making it a twin. Below is a original by a gentleman named Arnold and my twin.    Gary

Love it galland.  Great idea, it balances well, much better than my single-cylinder try.  I assume each cylinder exhaust thru its end of the crankshaft, and the inlet ports up the middle of the frame?

You are correct bent. The crank is hollow all the way through and the port runs the full length of the main frame.
