This engine is to my own design using materials in my scrap bin.
It is an all brass fabrication which I silver soldered, The piston is aluminium which I hard anodised, The Cylinder is a glass tube which I lapped using a piece of aluminium which I drilled then split and attached to an old expanding reamer, after mounting it between centres I turned it to size, I then charged the lap with valve grinding paste by rolling it on a hard surface to embed it, adjustments to the lap for ware were made by tightening the nuts on the reamer.The Dynamo is a capstan motor salvaged from an old VCR built into an aluminium casing. The Radio is a commercial one running on six volts. Fuel is ethyl alcohol.
