Hi sir. Please please i understand u worked hard in that engine. I simple dont have the basic toold to build mines, can i buy one of yiur engine please?. The others are crazy expensive 🙏🙏🙏🙏
Sorry. This is my only engine. It’s not for sale. If I were to build another one to sell, I would have to charge the same or more than the cost of a new one to make it worth my time to do the work. And it wouldn’t be as good as a commercially made engine.
I have that book and built one of those. I changed the compressor to a garret turbo impellor and brought a wren turbine wheel. Had to change the direction of rotation for them. Instead of the three piece shaft I made an all steel one. It ran ok but always ran hot. I also used a later design combustor from gtba plans. Ran mine on propane for starting and diesel for main fuel. It didnt like proper jet a-1 fuel. Excellent fun running them.

OP said "I spend 10 bugs to built it" And a lot of work and patience - Nice done! Well, on a commercial version you would have a compressor made out of carbon or aluminum, a turbine out of inconnell(sp?) but it would cost at least 100 times more.
As long as the bearings still fit, I can't imagine how it would effect the performance. Unless the smaller diameter would flex more and show bigger effects of any vibration, but I doubt that that would even be a real concern. Sorry I don't have a better answer.
CA glue, cyanoarcrylate. I tacked the end, wrapped it around once, applied the ca, wrapped it around once, applied ca, repeated until thick enough. Just be careful not to get to much that it runs and makes a big clump, but enough so that all the carbon gets impregnated.
Actually I am making fd3 . could you tell me please that the book say to use 608bearing which dimension is 8*16*5 . Could I use 8*22*5 dimension bearing it's few large than? Sorry for bad English.
Well, I didn’t write the book or design this, so I can’t say if it would be ok. But, if all you do is change the dimensions to fit a different bearing, I don’t think it would hurt anything. Just make sure you don’t compromise the strength of any parts.
I used 608's in my engine, you have to redesign the bearing tube and also the cone part of the combustion chamber to fit. I ended up using full compliment ceramic bearings, ceramic balls in steel races.
Prettty sure it will run on kerosene or diesel. I actually haven’t tried anything other than propane yet. And it really doesn’t self sustain on propane as I thought. One of these days I’ll make the fuel line.
Hi. Am trying to build one of this. Can I send you an image of my design for you to have a look and tell me if it's OK. I really can't find any in depth explanation on RUclips. It will be very helpful. Thank you in advance
I didn’t design this. And I’m not an engineer. But I could look at it and give you my thoughts. Go to my website www.blueracecars.com and you can find a link to contact me.
Hi nice work. Can tell me from where i can buy carbon fibre raping or u can send me any link .I don't know what is look like this carbon fibre raping. Thanks
I start building this engine after watching ur vedieo is almost done I was using turbo charger compressor with this engine. I run the engine but I found out this not gona work with turbo charger compressor so now. I have to make shaft and compressor wheel .any way thanks for video and post vedieo with runing engine
I don’t know. To make it look nice? There is an option in the book to make the shaft steel instead of aluminum. The steel shaft is a smaller diameter and not tapered.
This type starts on propane to warm up then switch to kerosene or jet fuel. I don’t have the fuel line made yet,so I’m just running on propane, which doesn’t work well for sustained running.
Hi, you can download the book here: ftp.demec.ufpr.br/foguete/bibliografia/GAS%20%20TURBINE%20%20ENGINES%20%20FOR%20%20MODEL%20%20AIRCRAFT%20-%20BOOK.pdf?fbclid=IwAR30Ni3mjP0MUHTB7feWJmyeG_Nd2z0Nsds-fkoPKU0xsVHrLVn3rIShFQM
Well, you’re in luck. I was planning on posting a speed reading how-to video. Until then, just use your pause button. And besides, I was trying to keep it under 15min.

Hello where can i buy the book you used to do that engine?
@@circunbalacion if it’s not on Amazon or eBay, I don’t know.
@@customfabrications dont you have it yourself?

I think its amazing to make a gas turbine from simple materials like plywood. Great video!
Thanks!
Nice job! wanted to make one of these about 20 years ago. Would be a cool project.
Thanks! I’m tempted to do another one, but probably won’t. At least not anytime soon.

Good
Can I use galvanized sheet (G.I.sheet) for NGV in this jet engine ? Which material have you used in NGV ? . sorry for English.
I would use stainless for anything in the hot end. I don’t want to say if something else would work because I didn’t design it.
Shows the operation of this engine.
Maybe at a later time I may rebuild and run this. But I have too many other projects that need to get done first.
Hello, can i use single shaft which dimension is 8mm its thiner than the book say? Will it effect to performance?
As long as the bearings still fit, I can't imagine how it would effect the performance. Unless the smaller diameter would flex more and show bigger effects of any vibration, but I doubt that that would even be a real concern. Sorry I don't have a better answer.
@@customfabrications. Thanks a lot for feedback 😊
Hi wich glue u use for corbon fibor? On compressor wheel?
CA glue, cyanoarcrylate. I tacked the end, wrapped it around once, applied the ca, wrapped it around once, applied ca, repeated until thick enough. Just be careful not to get to much that it runs and makes a big clump, but enough so that all the carbon gets impregnated.
It works only with gas supplementary pipe? Good job ;)
Yes, it only runs on propane now. I have not made the fuel line yet.
What is the size of the compressor wheel??
its about 66mm dia

Can that engine work with petrol or diesel
Prettty sure it will run on kerosene or diesel. I actually haven’t tried anything other than propane yet. And it really doesn’t self sustain on propane as I thought. One of these days I’ll make the fuel line.

It’s called carbon tow (or toe). I just got it from eBay, but most composite stores should have it.

Where can i purchase this book?
Hey, It was originally sold by the VTH (Verlag für Technik und Handwerk) and I've got a sample. Unfortunately in German...
Why is the shaft tapered?
I don’t know. To make it look nice? There is an option in the book to make the shaft steel instead of aluminum. The steel shaft is a smaller diameter and not tapered.
what's the fuel to run it?
This type starts on propane to warm up then switch to kerosene or jet fuel. I don’t have the fuel line made yet,so I’m just running on propane, which doesn’t work well for sustained running.
Can I use this diffuser in kj66
I think they are compatible. But can’t guarantee it.

What's the name of the book
Gas Turbine Engines for Model Aircraft
How i get this is the book
eBay?
please give me this book link.
They are on eBay and Amazon. Just search ‘Kurt schreckling’
I built an fd3 from the book but did find a free pdf download online.

A turbine engine with high volume of flames built with plywood parts?? Don't you worry about,,, termites? :)
You have to use termite proof epoxy.
Can't read that fast
