Steam engine (Tiny horizontal double acting, maybe with reverse)

(1/13) > >>

gbritnell:
Gentlemen,
One more engine in the 'Tiny' series. This time a horizontal version. I might even make it with a reverse mechanism. There was no way to cut the entire base from one piece so I layed out the base to see how I could make it in 2 pieces and still have it look like a casting, or 1 piece. By cuttting a slot in the base and recessing the side wall of the cylinder a little for it to overhang the top surface it almost looks like one piece. The cylinder is mounted with 2, 0-80 socket head screws from underneath.
