I just browsed through the new AOMCI calendar, and
seen on “May”, there is the subject motor shown,
with the builder’s grandson, stating “first time seen
run in 50 years”.
What’s the “whole” story on this motor? Sounds
like it would make a good movie, but I could not
find anything on YouTube about it.
I did run across a 75 hp Riley radial that looked
quite impressive though.
I’d be happy is someday if I try, and succeed in making a little single
cylinder “hit and miss” engine” or something similar on the milling
machine…….. Mr. Van Dyke obviously had bigger dreams
and more skills!
