I was getting bored and decided to make a gear set. It had been about a year since the last set and I wanted to see if I remembered how. It made sense that the set should be good for an engine. They turned out great and I had the same conversation with myself about model crankshafts. The result was the great.

If you look back you will see that my first attempt kicked my butt. That engine hated me and I hated it back. Since I was hooked I made engine number 1 a parts supplier for number 3. It has a 31mm piston from some dead lawn engine and a 1.25" stroke. The flywheels are small. I have not figured out how to get the hysteresis in the governor for a nice coast between firings. Maybe a fly ball set up for the governor will be the answer,

Very nice, good job.

Looks and sounds good. Flywheels look like they run true without noticeable wobble. Yay!
