  • I'm wondering, is the pivot screw for the pistons completely below the air chamber, or over it somehow?

  • Hi, yes it is below the air chamber.

  • That's not a very large stroke then... I've been making oscillator engines out of Styrene plastic recently, so I'm looking for some ideas worthy of aluminum :P Very nice engine btw.

  • This is a very little engine. Cylinders are made of single alluminium piece with mill and lathe works. As you can see it runs well and smoothly.

    Thank you.

  • ...what is the largest PSI you have put on it? 30? 50? 2000?

  • About 30 PSI. With this air pressure the engine runs very fast! I can't test it now because I make it for a friend of mine and it is no more in my collection.
