Quarter HP Sipps
« on: October 19, 2020, 07:10:50 am »
This was the last of my purchases at the four-day Coolspring engine show.  It is a very fine example of a quarter hp vertical Sipps that runs easily at 2-3 psi.

What a beauty you have there Doug!

Much less common than the horizontal Sipps it seems, but just as fine an engine I have no doubt. Please feel free to send it right along to me to be paired with my nice old horizontal .... I'm sure you won't mind ...    ;c)
