1946 Popular Mechanics magazine engine

(1/5) > >>

mnay:
I am interested in building the engine detailed in Popular Mechanics Magazine 0ct and Nov 1946.
Has anyone out there built one and heard of anyone building one?

You input would be appreciated.

Thanks
Mike

I couldn't find anything (part 2 of the article) in the November issue - have I missed it somehow?

Cheers Garry

Garry,
You did miss it. Starting in Google Books, I was able to find the whole November issue on page two of the search.

Garry,
I believe that engine on you tube in your reply is a Coles Power Models
water witch.   After doing some research it seems that they are very similar.
