Lego ‘Steam’ Engine 3
Posted on : 12-04-2010 | By : cherexposed | In : steam vacuum reviews
Another vacuum powered lego steam engine. This time I made the valve and power stroke shorter and used some WD40 as lubricant. Turned out not too bad but should have made the conencting rods shorter to prevent the buckling which occurs at high speed.
cool!
how do you keep the engine almost friction less? thats the problem i have when i build a motor
im not sure but maybee you are using to big axels to push the piston…
Sweeet
it makes a nice sound and seems reliable make it into a multycylinder
Now all you gotta do is make a Lego car to put it in!
@KyleReidzilla somebody already did that but u need much power (more than the most vacuum motors have) to power a car which carries such a motor
