That's way cool!! Those guys that build the miniature engines amaze me! I've seen some mini aircraft engines that you could take pics of, and not be able to tell the difference!
Thanks for the link!!

You know I have often thought of building a mini EMD locmotive engine -they are a two stroke-rootsblown/turbo charged diesel engine -maybe someday when I have the tools and a place to do it .............

That is cool. Lot of hard work there. I'd hate to know what he would charge for one of these.
