Sticking Engine M2

hammer:
Sticking Engine M2. This engine like the last is destined for a model paddle steamer. The design brief is must be self starting & reversible, so twin double acting as before. Paddlers are unstable so low center of gravity, driving by gears 3 to 1 reduction. No castings.
The plans  :happyreader: are in my head and I have made a start. Geoff

hammer:
I realise my engine is quite simple, especially to you experts, but as I said I am only a learner. Just an old carpenter who thinks 1/16" is a fine measurement. This is not a show engine by any means, it will have to work & work. I will post photos of the progress. Geoff

Don1966:
Looks interesting to me Geoff. I will be following you on your venture. Just keep the photos coming..        :headscratch:

Don

steamer:
No Worries Geoff.

No one is born knowing this stuff.  Its a learning process

I've pulled up a chair and I'll be watching!

Dave

Alan Haisley:
Go to it, Geoff.
