Popcorn engine

[BOB BLACKSHAW 1Participant @bobblackshaw1]

I've been looking on the internet for some plans for a Popcorn engine to make, I have not seem to find any plans but plenty of discussions about them. Any ideas please as they seem a good project to have a go at.

Thanks Bob

If you want to do it from barstock then a digital subscription will let you access Stew Hart's article with drawings, a PM to him should also work. They can also be downloaded from MEM forum, search "Potty Popcorn"

Julius De Wall has his redrawn version of stew's engine free to download

If you want to do one from castings then Myers in thetates do a 1/2 scale one or there is a guy who casts from original Cretors patterns

I can thoroughly recommend Stew Hart's version; although it is not a true scale model I believe it is based on a Dunbar original. Stew very kindly sent me his drawings in response to a request via a Personal Message on here.

Have you got the magazine number for digital subscription. That looks great engine you have made.

Thanks Bob

Starts in 4422 and runs for about 8-9 issues

[BOB BLACKSHAW 1Participant @bobblackshaw1]

Ive lost it here with 4422 as the digital magazine ends in 269, have I got the wrong digital subscription for 4422.

Thanks Bob.
