    This one is called Lady Stephanie. I don't know who the real Lady Stephanie was but if she was anything like this engine, I'm guessing she was kind of ornery and hard to please.

        Magic, no matter how 'ornery' she is. Nice 'limbs'

          After putting her aside I did another engine today. This is a a little crankless engine.

            Now that sure is unusual. Have to ask though… where’s the hamster ? 👍

              Great work, Dave, those machines were state of the art when they were invented. I have attached an image of a Quantum computer. Therefore state of the art today. When I say computer 99.9% of it is just for cooling the chip is about50x50x10mm. Here is a link to the model

                    So, the FBI, just about getting to steam power will hire Dave on the spot then?

                      Funny guys!

                      And here's another one. A little 4-cylinder oscillating engine. As usual, all base level components are solids.

                                        @Dave-R I thought I forgot to take my 3D glasses off when looking at this last image. Fantastic 👏

                                        P.S. I meant to say my X-ray glasses. The ones I bought from the ad in the back of my comic book. 😬
