@@Unapersonaconunmicroscopio a bottle will not supply enough air to run this engine, or any I've made for that matter. That's more for pneumatic engines, and I don't have the resources to build one of those

@@DeltonAdamsLEGO oh

@@Jonah-h6 I'd love to, but a train, even at this scale, would be really big. And these engines I've built so far don't produce enough torque to really do anything with them. But I *have* been looking into different types of valve gears, so that might be a future project

@@DeltonAdamsLEGO cool , I don't know that much about steam engines but can you put a throttle on one?

@@Jonah-h6 you definitely can! Just as long as you still have enough airflow to let the engine idle

Yes you can! But for more realistic engine models, 2x2 is just too small

I didn't make instructions for that one (it was just a test) but it's super easy to replicate just by carefully studying it. There's really no complicated parts to it

It's just a collection tod various SNOT bricks and curved slopes. It really depends on how the pistons you're trying to recreate looks

That's awesome! Congratulations!

@@justinjonpoon4716 I've got instructions linked in the description

A blow? Like, you can blow into with your mouth? I already have. All the steam engines I've made can run like that

@@gigandbro1159 I'm not quite sure I understand what you're saying

@@DeltonAdamsLEGO i mean if you power motor Let's say from 5 volts, then it is possible to make it so that the motor gives off part of this energy in the form of 2.5 volts (volts, for example)

@@gigandbro1159 not with my designs so far. They don't produce enough torque to turn a motor

@@DeltonAdamsLEGO sad(

@@1idiotatnight not only expensive, but huge and *insanely* heavy! But I do agree, that would be pretty cool

I know that's the *proper* way to do it, but I just wanted to see how the *improper* way would work

@@DeltonAdamsLEGO I'd be interested to see how well it would perform the proper way :)

@@robertyoung9988 I might test that out with my double action design, but I'm currently working on another project, so it'll be a little while before I get to it

I can't really seem to do tutorials right, and I didn't make instructions for this one, but if you study it closely, it's really easy to replicate

I don't think that would supply enough air to actually run it :/

Yep! This one (as well as the others I've made) we're shockingly simple to build

🤣

Electrical generator? So a power functions motor?

@@Dudeface167 I think with LVE's it would be a lot harder, since it takes a much higher pressure to run (at least this one) and vacuums (generally) don't have much pressure

@@nevernether3368 true, but that's pretty much impossible at this scale, however, if it were to be used on a larger engine, say a 4x4 piston (or larger) then a governor would definitely be doable. And it's not really the "speed" of the engine it's the pressure from the air entering the valve chamber. Higher pressure = more speed but also the risk of the valve coming apart

@@DeltonAdamsLEGO makes sense. I hope you can figure out a solid plan for the explosion problem then lol

@@jamesgroccia644 yeah, I know the whole 90° thing, that's kinda why I was surprised at how well this one ran, being 180°

@@hakonfikse8284 I don't have any instructions for this one in particular, but it's really easy to build if you take some time to study it

I've never had any success with tutorials. They never come out making sense. But this one is super easy to make just by studying it

@@DeltonAdamsLEGO yes but if you do something wrong it didn't be working 😭

@gigandbro1159 that's where tuning comes in, it's part of building engines!

@@DeltonAdamsLEGO yeah.

@@Thatonef9a yeah, no. It'd melt in seconds

Lol, soon! (Hopefully)

woah, woah, woah, hold yer horses there!

@@WARNUGGET77-ny7ei 🤣 I ain't got that kind of money!

Actually, making the flywheel even heavier would make it run *worse* than it already is, due to the low amount of torque it produces

@@DeltonAdamsLEGO there you have a big, but EXTRA EXTRA XL BIG point

@@garagegnome1 that would be awesome, but this engine produces no torque, so it'd kinda be useless and have no functions at all
