Hi, I spent the winter fabricating a small 2 cylinder, single stroke. It has a 2 inch stroke with 1 inch bore. It should work well with the mono tube...
Hi, I purchased a new collet and DeskTop PCB software. I am getting good results.
Thanks for the help. The stock collet had really bad runout.
Hi. I started fabricating a small steam engine. I am using a Harbor Freight Mill Lathe. The problem I am having is drilling the holes in the correct location. Are there any tutorials showing the...

Hi, I now have a working system. The mono tube boiler works well as long as there is adequate fire and water is being pumped into the boiler.
The ICE...
Hi, the end goal is to generate electricity using a permanent magnet alternator.
There are problems areas. The engine oil pan fills with water, the run time is really short, and finding or...

Hi, running better. Now I need a boiler.
Hi, thanks for info. This is just a first attempt to learn what is require. The BS motor had not worked in decades and was heading to the scrap pile, good enough for the learning experience. It looks...

Valves are opening at the same time. not good
Hi, modified the cam shaft using JB weld. The four stroke is now a 2 stroke. I should be able to test the conversion with air in a day.
Are there any DIY cam shaft grinder plans availible???
Hi, I completed the VAWT project. I tested my MPPT circuit and two other MPPT circuits from other designers. The MPPT circuit for a permanent magnet alternator is different than the solar MPPT...
Hi, this is first attempt. I have no experience with steam. I built a rotative beam and I need input power. I plan to drive a small generator. After I get it to run I will spend some time to make it...

Hi, I started a project that will use a pendulum to drive a flywheel. I am using an over run clutch between the...
Hi, why did they make the handles curved? Is there a mechanical advantage?
Greetings, I am using DeskPCB and I am trying to mill a double sided PCB. The traces and holes line up when I cut Top side of the board, but when I cut the Bottom side the holes and Traces do not...
Hi, congratulations. I hope to see some photos of your project. If it is a HAWT or a VAWT I really believe that adding a MPPT to your project will make the greatest contribution for its ability to...
Greetings, using a isolated power supply and FOD3180 does work. I am using a blocking diode between the inductor output and the plus terminal of the 12 volt battery. The gate driver is triggering a N...

Hi, the video shows manual operation of PMA using a buck converter to drive a 12 volt 50 watt load. Without the buck converter I can not spin the PMA fast enough to...
Hi, RPM may be a problem, what is the required RPM for the alternator to start charging? Would you have to supply a voltage to energize the alternator? I have a seen a company that uses that wind...
I am currently searching for away to supply the IC’s with Vcc. I am not sure if I should use a 12 volt linear regulator from the 12 volt battery bank or if there is a method to use the large input...
Hi, thank you, yes they are auto timing belts. I had to add a bearing within a bearing at the very top to stop the shaft from flexing. I am very happy with the results. I recently found out about the...
Greetings, I finally found the correct timing belts. I had to make new pulleys. I purchased them for a auto parts store and the sales person told me they should be replaced every 60,000 miles. J The...
Hi, it sounds like a interesting project, I hope you post some photos when you have completed it. The configuration of belts and pulleys I am working on functions like a flexible rack and pinion and...
Hi, photos of belt and pulleys with idlers. The configuration may not be mechanically correct but the belt does not slip and has low bearing load. The configuration allow the pulleys to be placed...
