    Yup, the doors open Brittany, that's why there's a little bit sanded off the front edge, so they don't hit. As far as the engine, I started building a V8 that cranks. I have the block with pistons and a crank done but that's as far as I got. I'll try and make a video of it turning.

    Thanks guys, and yes, many models built when I was kid. Here's another one, a fishing reel with a video of the reel turning.(click on last pic)

    It's been a long time since these were made but I'd like to start making some replica tractors some day. Just thought I'd post these since Karl put in the wood working topic. ooops, looks like I broke the clutch handle and didn't notice it until I looked at these preview pics.

    That's a great idea and a very nice piece of furniture

    I did think of building one out of heavy pipe too but thankfully came to my senses!

    I did build a boiler out of a soup can but it turned out to be a little more dangerous than expected. Even though I had a pressure relief valve in it, it still blew up. Luckily no injury occurred but the potential was definitely present. SCARED the you know what out me when it went off! It's just not worth it to me for the liability and it runs much better from air anyway .
