This is a really excellent book. Not only the plans, but also the historical information and shop help.
 I am working on the vertical engine. It's coming along well, although progress has slowed due to the fishing and vacation season :)

Hi Scot:-

Thanks for your kind comments about my book its much appreciated I've attached a link to utube of my engine running. Yes I'm enjoying the fishing season as well: - tried the local canal today for a couple of hours only caught 1/2 doz small roach, far to many boats, the canals fish best in the autumn.
