Steam / Compressed Air Engine

This model steam engine, styled like a locomotive and designed for display purposes, was transformed into a functioning machine after careful adjustments and the application of graphite. It operates on compressed air and may be modified with an enlarged piston and bigger valve ports. A video demonstration is available at this link: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FfVjyoL2gy8&list=UUKo5IpKOhxv8yhSzxeK-l0g&index=1&feature=plcp. The STL files for the nine (9) parts are provided, along with a Rhino model file for customization. The AirEngineComplete.stl is just for visual reference. Assembly should be straightforward, but the flywheel shaft may need trimming if not used as a power takeoff. Feel free to ask questions about this project.
