This is the actual working model of the cutaway series. The reversible cutaway model with stephenson valve gear working with the completely built cylinders. The cutaway cylinder in the other videos is visible on the table. This is just to prove to people that the engine will actually work when the cylinders are built just like in the demonstration model. This reversible engine uses everything seen in the three other videos except that the cylinders are finished. Thanks again to legokid900 for the reverse link dementions.

How I fill my 3/4″ pneumatic gun. I learned that the hose clamp on the quick connect and the pressure relief valve makes the fill task very easy to do.
www.Techbricks.nl shows how to open a LEGO pneumatic cylinder and how to drill the nozzles (inlet with a 2mm drill. It is not recommended drilling a nozzle without opening the cylinder and removing the piston because: 1) You can’t see how far the drill is and you may drill through the other side. This is especially the case at the lower nozzle. 2) You can’t remove the drilling dust from the inside of the cylinder. This dust will damage your piston ones you use the cylinder in a LEGO pneumatic engine (LPE). Drilling the inlet and outlet is absolute necessary to get a better air flow and to let your LPE perform must faster! Check my website for more information: www.techbricks.nl
www.Techbricks.nl shows in this video the difference in performance between an original LEGO pneumatic cylinder and a cylinder that is optimized for optimal air flow. The inlet holes of the cylinder are drilled up to 2 mm with the result that the piston can move much faster. Check my web page about LEGO pneumatic engine (LPE) for more info: www.techbricks.nl

This 70 HP 1914 Chicago Pneumatic air compressor is at the Antique Gas & Steam Engine Museum at Vista, CA. It’s a horizontal one cylinder two cycle semi diesel oil engine. It has a bore of 11 inches and a stroke of 12 inches for 3396 cubes. The flywheel is 5′ 2′ and spins at 150 rpm. It operates with a direct injected hotbulb ignition. It is a compound engine that has two inline cylinders with the front cylinder used to power the engine and the rear cylinder used for compressing the air. Engines like this were built in varying sizes until 1925, and used in compressed air plants at mines. This engine was used at a mine in Quartzsite, Arizona and donated to the museum in 1983. Information is from the paper at the museum describing the engine. Video taken on 6-26-10.
