OKMO 1/4 Scale Lister D Engine with some Mods
« on: June 14, 2026, 10:48:07 pm »
OKMO RETROL 1/4 Scale Lister D Engine with some Mods. I'm so thoroughly enjoying the Lister D and doing some small mods to it.
It's such a reliable engine, this hobbed nonslip drive pulley is going to work out terrific for running accessories from it, which I'm really looking forward to.

As is usual from you Jim, these mods seem well thought out and highly functional.

The method of using a tap in the chuck of the lathe and the pulley on post for hobbing works really well. I made this brass pulley up this morning and hobbed it.
