michaelbeetham:
It seems easy to add a couple of propellers to simulate a sternwheel
drive. The paddlewheel would spin in the wake, I expect.

Would you please indicate a method bywhich I could devise a more
realistic drive from the lateral motion of the wheel's drive arms?
(i.e. from back-and-forth to around-and-around?)
Please forgive me; I hope my question makes sense.

I've got some photos and drawing of a mechanism I built for my George
M. Verity on my site at.. http://www.dragg.net/jbrown/construc2.htm
There should be some photos of the model in the photos page
