Checking in from Long Island, New York
« on: September 05, 2018, 02:54:47 PM »
Hey guys, grettings from New York. I am pretty much a newbie and a large portion of my machining knownledge came from YouTube videos. I found this forum this morning and decided to join. So far I built a PM Research engine from castings and several Elmer’s engines from stock which are powered by compressed air at the moment. Always looking to learn.

That's cool - welcome. Which PMR engine did you build? Any pics of any of your engines?

Forging ahead regardless.

I posted some photos in the showcase section. To answer propforward, it was the PM Research #3 cast iron / bronze. I am almost done working on Elmer’s Scotty engine, and will add that as well. I will also get some photos of my basement shop soon.
