Sold my Vulcan 500, need something new to work on. S40 tracker project needs fine tuning, re handling, but a new project is needed. Open to ideas!
Thinking of refurbing a GS500. Cool

How about an old hit & miss stationary engine. I love those things.

I knew a guy who used one 45 years ago. Still can't figure how it worked. Cool idea though. Cool

Look it up on Wikipedia. I've rebuilt a few back in the day, but they were working for a living engines on pastoral properties, not enthusiast pieces. They still get used occasionally in shearing sheds over here.

Speed sensor, centrifugal force type, causes the exhaust valve to open till it drops down, then it Hits again, until it's spinning too fast,, rinse, repeat,,,
