Nice engine and is the base a casting / stamping/ etched ??Willy.
I was quite amazed to see that engine. I have only seen one or two before and that was in 1978 when I did metalwork at Secondary school, aged about 15. The technician there made the wooden pattern for the base and the flywheel. The metalwork shop was equipped with a small smelter. The aluminium came from broken chairs. We had the privilege of preparing the sand boxes and then watching the casting. It was amazing to see molten metal. The engine I made I still have - see photo. Not as refine as your version but then I was only just learning about metalwork. I took it along to my London Transport apprenticeship interview and was successful. That was 43 years ago!I wonder where the design for this engine originated from. Was it part of the education syllabus back then?
