Now you have the audacity to post more pictures of the engine with the radiator that is totally my design. My drawings are available for builders to make their own engines.
I don't care that yours will be smaller, it's my engine design!
I would appreciate it if the moderators would lock this thread and ban you from posting.

Ok here's a list of identical things on 'your engine'
First and foremost my engine is the only one that has a split crankcase and the one you show has a split line on the crankcase .
The next major copy is the governor to carb linkage. Here again I've never seen another Holt with governor linkage.
The carburetor is my design. The original Holt model carb is nothing like the one you show.
The fan support and mounts to the skid. You're telling me that you just happen to have come up with a design that is 'identical' to mine!
The engine mounts, identical!
The fuel tank location and mount, identical! I'll even go one further, the little bumps on the fuel cap.
The rain flap on the exhaust stack!
I could go on but I think that is sufficient.
You sir are using other people's drawings and designs to make money from without any effort by yourself!

It's ridiculous, what exactly are your drawings? I see pictures of the completion engine online? Is this the drawing you said?
I designed it with reference to the collected pictures. Have you registered a patent for this engine?
I think the company that produced it is gone.

I am locking this thread. Most of what can be said has been written here (above).


We have a clear case of design copyright issues. The engine as shown in the drawings Jin has published here clearly incorporate the design changes made by George.


The Holt 75 Caterpillar engine was offered for many years as a casting kit from Coles Power Models. George Britnell spent many hours (400-500)
perfecting design changes that would allow the construction from bar stock.


My intent from this point will be to facilitate an amicable end to any disputes here.
