  • could i get your plans from you?

    thanks bodie488

  • @bodie488 : They can be downloaded from my homepage, see link on the main page.

  • Tnx Lau! The engine uses aircraft kerosine but parafine/petrolium would do fine as well. The turbine is ordered at jetmax.com

    Best regards,

    Gerald

  • hey how much would that cost you

    im urgently looking for one or even 2 of this kind turbine

    for my jet Trek road bike project

    can you sell it to me for a good price

  • @kenupcmac , Sorry, I don't make/sell components for others. Too less time for too many projects still to do.......you know!

    Best regards,

  • did you machine your intake nozzle yourself or did you buy that piece separate?

  • @honeybunchickens, intake is made by me on my little lath. Most components are homemade except for compressor and turbine wheel.

  • @antosdesantos 1 year later my question has been answered. I found several ways of doing this accurately with out CNC 1 year later it didn't take me that long to answer my own question. It was from talking to someone that has actually answered me and made his own micro jet from no CNC work. nice chatting with someone to answer a question one year later. Thats not very professional

see all

  • @richardarichter123 why should you add oil to the kerosene? that would end horribly for the engine. that doesn't even make sense, the kerosene doesn't come in contact with the bearings. In the big engines, like PW4000 or CFM Engines, the bearings have their own oil circuit, so they are lubricated and cooled all the time.

  • do you add oil to the fuel to help lube the bearings

  • @honeybunchickens what did you do to make it? care to share? thanks

  • @honeybunchickens very good question....i would like to know how to accurately make the intake without cnc also.

  • Nice work man. Question do you have any problem lighting off propane? If your engine start good on propane,  From the 12:00 O Clock position,, what number burner stick did you use for your propane input line?
