    Gary, how much air pressure are you running the motor on in the video? Also, and I hate to ask, do you have any video of the pressure being varied any, in other words being throttled? That would be cool to hear. I have wanted to build this engine also and it really is cool to hear one. Thanks for sharing.

    Nice looking job. How did you get those perfect small radius bends in the tubes ?

    Thumbs up

    I bet you could lathe out the proper radius and diameter in a piece of stock and those tubes would bend like butter,

    that is some nice work, I tried to watch the video but my computer is a PIECE OF CRAP! nice work though...

    That is excellent! Sounds great. Like all I need is another project. I too would really like to know what the pressure is and how it throttles. I wonder if it could be run on expanding freon or propane?
