Model Engine-Making in Theory and Practice (Classic Reprint) Paperback -

Although many of the so-called model engines as, for example, those described in Chaps. II. And III. - have no large and useful archetypes, still the construction of these will prove a valuable stepping stone to the more advanced models described in later chapters and in order to impart as much interest as possible to the work of Model engine-mating, I have in many cases given the proportions of the more important parts as they would be in full-sized engines.

Before however we take in hand the actual con struction of a model engine, it will be convenient to devote a preliminary chapter to the consideration of the tools required and the castings to be used.
