Scratch Built Air (Steam) Engine

My first video. A little engine I built. It took about 7 hours to build. (I had to cut through a 1/2in bar of 6061 aircraft alluminum with a tiny hand saw...) It has no exaust and wouldn't benefit from one. I'm powering it with a bicycle pump. Plz comment and rate.

what is the piston and cylinder? thanks

[YupHio]

@FastSuzuki250 Piston is 1/2" aluminum round stock and the cylinder is made of Trex decking material (fake wood) it's not a very good combination but it works.

@nicknamevlad1 yh circles are lame

[AstroTrainboy1174]

it sounds like it is trying to wisper something

What is that fly wheel made out of? It looks very high performance and I want to put it on my engine. PLEASE SEND FLYWHEEL PLANS!

[MrRazmushenriksson]

how do the valve working?

[luke242mx]

good job i like that you didnt use one of those cheap ass kits then think your some kind of engineer like other people try making a round fly wheel and as little vibration as possible and you will be surprised how fast it will go im still wondering how to make my valves though

[Colabrother]

Very good.. Thanks for that!
