Hi Maurice,
“BRILLIANT” (excuse the pun!). You have no idea how ‘on the money’ your posted scan is. The ENV was the very engine that lead to my original post. A ½-scale running model of this engine is being completed by a U.K. based friend of mine using the very technique described. He encountered huge difficulties with the ElectroForming of the Copper water-jackets but he got there in the end. As he states it; “when I first commenced the fabrication of the ENV’s Copper water-jackets, I knew about 1% of what I needed to know. Now that I have completed the task I can confidently state that I now know all of 5%!” ……. I will forward on a copy to him.
What also got me enthused about your reply Maurice is that you obviously have access to the “AUTOMOBILE ENGINEER. I am trying to get hold of some scans of pages 170-175 in the June, 1925 Volume 15 (Issue #203). It is an article fully describing Edmund Rumpler’s 28-cylinder 1,000PS aero-engine, in reference to an earlier posting of mine. Is there any possibility that you may have access to this article and whether you would be good enough to scan a copy for me? I would be most appreciative of your help.
Cheers Maurice.
