Progress on Mogens Kilde side lever engine
« on: March 24, 2024, 02:04:13 pm »
Good afternoon, Everyone.
I wanted to show the parts I have made so far.
The plans are from Home Shop Machinist Magazine (July-December 2008).
All these parts are made from mild steel. (1018)
As you can see, this is a small engine (the Quarter is for scale).
It has been interesting changing all the metric dimensions to imperial.
I'm quite pleased at how well these are coming out.
Thanks for looking.

Good looking parts you made there. This will be a good thread to watch.

Unique design I've never seen a beam engine with the beam mounted low in the base like that makes it appear much more compact.

I was looking through some of old magazines and I came across this.
It is different - I like different.
