Looking for vertical hit and miss project/plans/castings. |

I am fairly new to the hobby having built only two engines (a J |
|
Howell �Farmboy� and a D Kelley cam stopper) and am looking for |
|
my next project. I am very keen to build another gas hit �n |
|
miss engine but fancy something vertical this time, something |
|
like a gearless Olds or a Perkin�s side shaft model. Wondering |
|
if anyone has any castings, plans or unfinished projects of this |
|
type of engine - basically something a bit different from my |
|
other two engines. Not yet ready to make the switch to steam |
|
(but I�m sure that will happen at some point). Thanks for |
|
reading 👍 |

Look at Little Locos. |

|
They have a casting set for the Parcell and Weed vertical hit |
|
and miss engine. |
|
Philip DuClos also built a vertical gearless hit and miss |
|
engine. The plans are in the Two Shop Masters book. |
|
Here is a video of my Parcell and Weed engine. |
