My 2nd IC engine...A Webster
« on: November 29, 2017, 03:57:29 PM »
Someone said I would get addicted to building engines. Just a few weeks ago I completed an Upshur build.
Now, my Webster is running.
Thanks for providing the venue to show off our creations !

Nice runner Sleddog. Did you complete that one in just a few weeks?

Very nice  :praise2:  :praise2: As Bill said did you really do it in a few weeks or was it a parallel build? What are you planning on next?
Best regards

Roger

I like your Casey Jones throttle lever.

Bill, Roger i started November 4 or 5, after finishing the Upshur. I had ordered the gears & carburetor to have on hand.

Brian, someone  :naughty: craftier than me come up with Casey Jones lever!

I'm not sure what's on the agenda next. Have given some thought to an Upshur opposed twin or possibly a Hoglet. Not sure I'm ready for them. I'm open to suggestions.

Thanks for the comments

Jack

Nice work Sleddog.  Less then month to build is very impressive.  As far as the next engine, there is always the "Tiny" in one of it's various forms.
