PORTABLE HM-01 & ENJOMOR ENGINES MADE WITH A CUSTOM BASE

I purchased one of the Custom Base Fuel Tank Oil Pipe Sets for my RETROL HM-01 Hit and Miss Engine Model and it really made it stand out. But it was just missing something. I wanted a portable engine. I found a set of red wheels and made the front bolster and rear axle supports for it. It came out so nice I ordered an additional Custom Base for my ENJOMOR Making it a portable also.

First HM-01

This is my first model engine. It is easy to be critical, that's not my intention. Slightly disappointed, several issues... 1. The high-tension spark plug lead was too short for the sled. I needed to cut and join a section in the middle, under the sled. 2. The auto centering shim on the governor flywheel did not grip the crankshaft. I needed to pack the shim to gain enough pressure to finally grip the shaft. 3. The glass oil cup for the piston leaks at the joint to the block. It needs a seal. I fixed it with thread tape. 4. The crankshaft counterbalance weights were poorly finish. They needed fine filing to remove excess metal from the edge. It is running and a joy to watch. As I say this is my first model engine, maybe these issues are normal...? Trevor.

Very nice Base and Fuel Tank!!

Engine base is made of very hard wood.
Looks great.
Box lid closes well.
Fuel tank looks good and I believe the fuel lid is made of lost wax.
