oscillating steam engine

video clip of one of my oscillating "steam" (really compressed air) engines . It would only run for a few seconds before exhausting my tiny aircompressor. I made it from 3/4 inch (1.5 cm) plastic PVC pipe, plexiglass, and a few odds and ends from the hardware store.

forward and reverse manifolds done

finished the forward and reverse manifolds, next will be the reversing valve.
