Deutz D2 vertical Gas Engine (1895) from Castings

[pirmin]

Hy,my Name ist Pirmin and i am an Austrian Model Engineer,and i would Like to share my Engine build with you.

A few years ago i Fell in Love with the Deutz D2 often simple refered as "Otto".
Mr Heinz Kornmüller from Austria did a fascinating Job and layed the foundation for this Modell. The Castings are now distributed via the Engineers Emporium ltd.in UK and the Castings are Made of a very good Quality Cast Iron and weight aprox. 9kg. The Drawings are Metric and are 99% ident with the Original Drawings from Mr. Kornmüller,they are Just revised. I also ordered a Name Plate Set with the engine and the EE sent me almost all the Barstock i need for the Build.



Now i have to say: a few of the Details on this build will be altered from me with the Help of Mr.Otto,for example the pendulum Swing Mechanism on the Governor was Not perfect for my Taste,so that was one of the First Thing i want ed to be solved,and thats also one reason why i will build this engine in a different approach,i will make all the small parts First,all toleramces are Hit within +-5 microns,some are even Better.

I will Go into Detail whenever i can,but please understand,i cant Picture every single compoment seperate.

Lets start with a few Pictures of the Castings i got,and a few Pictures of small parts i already Made.

Also the Gas Mixer was finished Yesterday ,only the Swing arm and weight are Missing .



Cheers Pirmin and Parts Inspektor Sniffles

Today Not much Happend,i only turned one of the Valves,i will have to make a Seat Cutter and will See If i can Machine the inlet housing Casting in the Meantime.

Ohh,and we have a new parts Quality Inspector in our House 

Here some Pics from the Valves and the Valves Guide and Madame Nameless

Nice looking valve.  And the parts quality inspector looks like they'll do the job admirably! 

I don't know if you ever watch Blondihacks, but your new parts inspector might learn a lot from watching her cat, Sprocket, inspecting her work.  Juat so you know, in cat, the sign of a good quality part is complete indifference to mild disdain.

i watched blondihacks a lot when i built my pm research no 1 mill and also when i started the hobby 2 years ago . i know sprocket !

[Kim]

Ah, good!  Then you and your new quality inspector are well aware of the current industry standards
