Has anyone else out there built the R & B Gas engine?

I found a couple of photo's of Bruce's (ex Bruce engineering) own engine:





if anyone is interested I will post some photo's of the machining of my one..

hi,
I sent away for the plans for this last year and they turned out too big to install on one of my SIMP frames ( see simple locomotives in the general section ) so having reduced it on the photocopier to 75% then it fitted, so this is the size I am making mine.

I have done the base, cylinder, flywheel and started on the crank. For this I have used two discs and drilled out some lightening holes either side of the big end. Next is sorting out the cooling for the cylinder.

Should be interesting to see what happens.

David.
