Hi all , over the years I have dabbled in many hobbie's.it works like this ,read a magazine gee I like that and I have to make it., that put's me in another hobby.
The engine in the Photo came about because a friend of mine who makes scale steam locos,him being a retired engineer said try making a hit snd miss engine
and that started another hobby, So from the plans I made the Rowville engine,First pic
did not like the petrol tank and exhaust so altered it,to the third pic,it is not a kit and is all fabricated made every thing from scratch,including gears ,it is a 4 stroke engine,and coil ignition the coil is in the base.It is a 1/4 scale model starts and runs good,my early model making never saw me taking pics of what I was making till this last 18 months or so,:doh:,I still have the plans .So I then become involved with further project's.perhaps another day:).
Cheers
Edwin.
ps the name of first pic is Rowville ,eddieville is the name of the third pic alteratiom,sorry about that booboo.
