That is great. How many hours do you have in it at this stage?

I should think about 60 to 70 hours, for the two.
To the finished stage about 100 to 120 hours.
A lot of that was getting the materials. These were built from scrap, so had to have a lot of machining just to get the basic building blocks. The cylinders were made out of old window sash weights.

Very nice, how long did it take to built?

At this stage about six weeks, I was designing and building two at the same time. Total time for two complete engines, about nine weeks.
... simply ingenious! Congratulations!

This is only the basic engine, there is one that shows it finished except for paint.
