    I downloaded the plans for this several years ago but have never built it. Now I'm getting interested again. I really like your idea for the adjustable valve throw. I'll probably use a cast iron dolly wheel for the flywheel. another interesting variation would be to use a piece of Lucite or some other transparent plastic for the cylinder, maybe with a Teflon or Delrin piston.

      Sounds like an interesting idea, should work fine and be fun to watch running.
