I am in awe of you. You are a true engineer - I love how you genuinely built it out of scraps, and it genuinely works. It's not pretty, but to me it's beautiful, because it's perfectly functional.
Mooi ou maat so die klein piston seel af en die stoom druk die groot piston af ne? die klein een maak dan oop en die momentum van die wiel vors dus die groot piston op terwyl die klein valve of piston oop is en maak weer toe en stoom kom in en forseer piston dan af is ek reg?Waar in SA bly jy? baie goeie vid ek bly in Australia oorspronklik van Durbs
That's a very nice work! I'm a student from Catalonia (Spain) and I'm trying to make a simple steam engine in order to use it in a R/C boat model. I'didn't know how to start making it but your video has given me very good ideas! Thank you very much!
@dakaloka, I searched on google for "boy's book of motors, engines and turbines" that's got a plan on how to build a model steam engine, sorry I don't have the link anymore.
Great little homemade engine. I like the well engineered ones, but I also love the ingenuity of ones made from bits found around the house. Well done.
@techwizzy what !? they're really not.. listen to how he says certain words, they are shorther than how a scottish accent would say them.. Australian is the closest sounding to south african.but still out. I dont know how you van think he sounds even slightly scottish, let alone shrek (simplified american scottish)
@TheOllieHatton we must be watching different videos :P sorry I just think he sounds like shrek! lets not flood his cool video with irrelevent comments :)
@zarmayr, thanks for the comment. You should upload your engine so I can have a look, those 2 cylinders really ups the power output, but you also need a little more pressure to get them going :-)
South Africa!

Hope there's more videos about this now! :-)

Try to use a small compressor instead of blowing, an old fridge motor will work fine. thanks for sharing.
