Post by: MasonvilleEngines on April 12, 2019, 03:33:15 pm: Where is #21?
#19 and #20 , and #21 were all made from the same 3x4 inch piece of 6061. I think it might have gone to Bangor but I might be wrong.

Yellow brass wheels if I recall correctly.

Hello to all on new forum,
Yes Doug I do have this one, will need to take a few more pics to continue the count. In particular this small bore one needs my help to perform up to snuff. So I might try and run a more snorting 2 inch- two cylinder if you like and post video to count.

Len.

Len,
Would love to see a video of a 2cyl model. I have only seen one example and it was not running.

Post by: crazydoug on March 17, 2019, 07:14:49 am: The green horizontal that i sold last fall at jacktown, had aluminum flywheels. The blue horizontal i recently bought at cabin fever, has brass flywheels and the visible fuel tank is my own build.
I saw a twin cylinder horizontal version at Coolspring 2 yrs ago, but someone beat me to it!

Post by: RedRyder on March 15, 2019, 05:14:18 pm: The inverted you saw at jacktown and was displayed by Doug after he got it from me.
A lot of Herb's engines were sold at Jacktown and I recall at least one offered as a raffle prize.

My verticals I repainted in a dark red.

He got a vertical, horizontal and inverted from me. He may have sold or traded them. He got another horizontal at Cabin Fever which he may still have.
