Customer Reviews

There's more to model engineering than steam ! - Rated 4/5
Along with many aspiring model engineers, I have always had a secret desire to build an IC engine, but being bit of a novice, I thought I'd best read around the subject first. Firstly, this is not a cookbook, and contains no detailed designs or drawings. This suits me, as I want to learn about methods and techniques rather than slavishly follow a set of engineering drawings. However this might not be what all prospective readers are looking for. Perhaps the author might consider including detail plans for his 15 cc single ?
There are some excellent colour plates of example IC engines, and the author explains the basics of IC engine design, timing for both two and four stroke cycles, ignition methods and fuel types, even a passing reference to the wankel rotary ! Methods of construction are discussed and the novice is provided with guidance for his/her initial designs. The mathematics is kept to a minimum, so if you want the really heavy theory you will need another book.
I really enjoyed reading this book, and the subject of IC engines has been somewhat demystified. Who knows, I might actually have a go at building one !
