Powered Hit and Miss Engine Kit

Description

As I Finished Modeling The Fairbanks-Morse Hit And Miss Engine, Http://Www.Thingiverse.Com/Thing:113398, I Kept Thinking It Should Be Running. The 1/16 Scale Model Is Surely Big Enough To House A Small Electric Motor And A Battery Pack. So Back To The Drawing Board (Or Is That The €Œcad Pad”?) See It Run At: Http://Youtu.Be/0-Gthz5Ukey Well, It Is Still A Tight Fit. The Motor Must Be Mounted Normal To The Flywheel Axis. So We Need Bevel Gears To Couple The Motor With The Flywheel. I Hollowed Out The Gear Box, And Gave It A Separate, Glue On Cover. Separated The Base And Found Room To Install The Switch And Battery Back. Now The Engine Is Just Looking For Something Neat To Power!!!
