Stephen Wessel won a Gold Medal in 2014 with a stunning model of an Armstrong Siddeley Lynx IV Radial Engine; he is now about to embark upon another aero engine from the days of the pioneers and begins an occasional series covering the build. He starts this time with the background to the project and his research.
Traditional Meccano was designed to fire the imagination and it certainly worked for Dutch reader, Henk-Jan De Ruiter who has provided an unusual but delightful photo feature, just so we can enjoy his characterful models.
Rodney Oldfield continues the manufacture of his V4 oscillating engine and Robert Hobbs gives some hints and tips on sheet metal work.
Jourmeyman returns with a look at some interesting ideas for unusual models and an idea from the 1920s for the home foundryman.
Former editor, Ted Jolliffe has been browsing his local car boot sale where a chance purchase leads to a useful bit of new tooling.
Inchanga writes about Charles Franklin Kettering, a notable inventor who had a fascinating career and Roger Backhouse considers the merits of the valveless two stroke engine, looking at some more recent applications developed at Queens University, Belfast.
