What a great garden ornament, I ain't gonna be happy till I've built one  ;)

That is a nice one and the pump adds a lot too!  I would give it a proper flywheel though.

Yea, I'd agree Bill that a better flywheel would enhance it.

It appears to be a water cooled adaption of this engine, has anyone here built one?
