This video is an excellent tutorial for making your own castings. You had a ton of good tips on making the patterns.

fantastic workshop / love it

absolutely brilliant thank you for sharing

Pity about the silicone hose it's just so unauthentic .

Nice.... how would an expansion wig wag engine be?

Your neighbors mowing the lawn wasn't the problem, it was the background noise you added on top. English isn't my primary language, so I need extra focus to understand what was being said. I hated every second of those annoying birds chirping and making everything unnecessarily more difficult.

me and 11 of my classmates are building this to prepare for our exams in june. very cool

I am learning now. Thanks you.

Very nice video.

Can anyone tell me if Myford change gears would work on a Perfecto lathe?

Excellent quality filming Ade. Love Kev’s comment 😂😂 Cheers Nobby

Verry good quality drone and camera you've got!

luvley jubley😉😉🚂🚂🚂🚂👍👍 atb Kev

Ade Keith from Michigan. I've kept numerous videos from you. As of Nov 6th I should finally take delivery on a Mill, and have the features will make it much easier. If all goes well, I've been wanting to forward you a email. My Lathe is located in the basement, the Mill is also going in the basement too. Because since I live very close to our large lake, snow can get pretty deep. I'll keep you posted, take care now....

I was so excited to see the train that my eyes darted from side to side to get the first glimpse of it. Thank you for sharing this experience with us and a special thanks for panning the camera so we could enjoy the train for a brief moment longer

Looks like paradise to me! Enjoy!

Just getting stock together for this engine after completing the original wig wag,can you tell me where you sourced the pressure regulator.

The hit and miss needs setting up much better. Shes running lumpy! Come and join our F/B group, model petrol/gas/ stirling engines uk.

Amazing video, very relaxing watch

Great vid, can't wait to build a wigwag one day. Any more videos in the pipeline Ade?

beautiful engine for a boat to take it to a stream canal

Loving the Blackbirds singing in the background, must be late afternoon. Also admire the attention to detail in your video.

Beautiful model!

Ignore the ignorant haters, you've done really well there. Old castings as donor material have higher silica content in the alloy and will flow well into more complex moulds, but having said that, what you've done there is brilliant. 👍

Nice work. Thanks for the video

I really enjoy your videos. I have already built two of your designs. How do I download the drawings for the Streched horizontal? Thanks in advance.

Hi ade, we're do you get this model from. Cheers

Скорее всего это происходит из-за того что ток который выдает датчик меньше чем требуется для открытия транзистора, который находится в блоке искрообразования (модуль искры). Most likely this happens because the current that the sensor produces is less than that required to open the transistor, which is located in the spark unit (spark module).

Wheel weights are a cheap source of zink. Sometimes lead, but seldom now days. Dropping them on cement will tell you whats what. Zink will have more bounce and a different sound.

The spark is usually generated when the points are *opened* not closed.

Thanks Ade, just what I was looking for. Appreciate the time and effort you have put into this and can't wait to get started.

The technique is prety good but steam engines are museum machinery

Please cast yourself a CNC milling machine!

Instead of zamak, try some white metal.... The melting point is waaay lower and you can make the mold with red silicone. Cheap and reusable.

i found your channel when o saw the castings you did a year ago. The problem is, what did you do with them? where is the video of them being used and an engine being made? I'm afraid your channel needs some continuity and regular updates for me to subscribe to it. I really enjoyed the casting video, but it needs the follow-on

Good afternoon. During a previous video I noticed a tapped hole 1/4" BSF on the saddle. The hole is on the headstock side towards the center. What is it used for please.

a great informative no nonsense video. thank you

Great video. Thanks for sharing.

Lots of advice here. Don't be too put off if some of it contradicts. A good source of casting aluminum is aluminum car rims. This alloy is made for casting and will shrink less.

Are petro powered reel mowers still in use in the UK? I was thinking they wee long time considered to unsafe to sell.

Hello are you still active? can I contact you about this model cause this is exactly our thesis in this time

It's RUBBISH, A Giant Cylinder For Such A Small ENGINE, Who Are You Fooling 😂😂😂😂

i used a bit of cast iron pipe i got from the dump. i lined it with refractory cement and i used builders sand and lime to make a paint to line the furnance .. i used fine sand and molasses as casting sand, i cooked the mould with the sand mix like a cake and it set like cement, and it could be carved or sanded, to reuse it it goes soft if put it in a bucket with water, so reusable and eco friendly no chemicals

Nice build Ade, your engine looks and sounds great.

Great video. Nicely narrated too.

Beautiful engine

Very nice. It runs so smoothly. I’m just fitting inlet and exhaust ports today, cleaning up here and there and then hopefully run it. My engine is a little different from yours, but I’m very thankful and pleased for being able to build this engine.

Oh yeah. I should have used a knife to cut the crank disc material. He he. It looks so much easier when I you do it.

I need to make myself a drill jig like that, you will see how I struggled, I managed, but I’m not satisfied with the operation. He he

He he. I messed up here with the hole sizes
