OKMO Microcosm B01 H&M Engine running homemade Baker Fan
« on: November 28, 2025, 07:05:13 pm »
I decided to build a Baker Fan to add load to my H&M engines together with my other ICE and steam engines. I managed to find an old (1950's) Erector/Meccano set on FB Marketplace and built a standalone Baker style fan. As you can probably see it adds load to this H&M engine.

Good work on the fan. Maybe I'll try to build one.
