Title: Diagonal Paddle engine
Post by: bananas-rox on December 09, 2011, 07:11:14 AM

Hi all, recently purchased an ET Westbury/ Reeves diagonal paddle engine. Ive made a few stationary engines, in the middle of a miniture traction engine, but ive never built an engine for a boat. If anyone else has built this engine and can offer any help, it would be appreciated. Thanks
