Potty Dake Engine

(1/28) > >>

sbwhart:
I've had an ankering to build a Dake engine for quite some time, when I came across informations on Pat's fathers Dake engine, since then I've researched the engine quite a few times each time I've advanced my understanding and spent a long time thinking about the best way to machine one from bar stock.

Over the last week I've been putting together an assembly drawing I've simplified things quite a bit to suite my methods and machinery. I'm not quite sure when I'll start to cut metal probably in a couple of months when I make more progress on my Simplex loco rebuild.

I've attached the assembly drawing:- comments will be apreciated.

Oh man, I got the popcorn going and a chair pulled up for this one. I can't wait to see how it develops after your last beautiful S/S build, Stew.  :ThumbsUp:
