Double Acting Oscillating Engine
This is the engine I designed for my steam roller model.
It works realy well and I have now made 2 other variations,
basically the same engine but moving the regulator/reverser to another place. The third design has a flywheel on one side of the engine and a gear on the other so needs a different crankshaft.
I have prepared 6 sheets of plans and these are available in
PDF form free of charge.
If you would like a set email me myfordboy@gmail.com and I
will send them to you. Ask me for "The double acting engine plans"
