Title: Duclos Odds 'n Ends Engine
Post by: Hero on March 27, 2019, 11:57:22 am
Here's one that has been scaled up by half, so it's a fair size.

I don't know yet if it'll run. I had to re-work the governor because it wouldn't latch out, and[attachimg=2][attachimg=3] I won't be able to start it till the last of the snow goes and I can go outside to play.

I'll make a video when I get it running.

Hm. I see I still don't quite have the hang of doing attachments. I'll get there, though.

Nick, I have so much stuff that I can't easily remember what I have. I have recently, though, said "enough," and am concentrating on finishing what I have and getting it to run.
