yeah, decided i need a 'challenge'.

seriously, id love to try that one day if i had suitable tools. obviously it would be crap, but if i could make it powerful enough to run a food mixer i'd be over the moon!

the engine i want to try and build one day is a model gas turbine. Have wanted one ever since i was about 14 when i used to build model planes. Unfortunatly the planes have had to be hung up in the garage to make space on the floor and in my time schedule for the car.

I knew someone who lived near me who was building one in a fairly unsofisticated workshop with a mill and lathe.
