A small ocsilating engine in slow motion
Just as a bit of info. It is running at about 700rpm, about 12 revs/second.
The real time length of the video clip is about 0.9 sec, if you count the revolutions it should be about 10 or 11.
Now wasn't that bluudy exciting

Thanks Tom
Thanks Ed,
I made it all on a Sherline lathe and mill, I'm a bit of a fan of Sherline stuff

Did you make that angle plate that the 3-jaw chuck is mounted on?
