Like many hobby machinists a wobbler engine was one of my first "kit" projects. After a few years of it taking up space on my workbench I borrowed an idea from another TH-cam hobby machinist and made a simple bracket that attaches (2 screws) to the wobbling part to hold spray paint cans and shake them. It's just a simple "L" bracket bent from some sheet metal and 2 hose clamps.
G'day Rusty. For a few scraps of metal a Shaper a lathe & Rustinox Humour suddenly there appeared a single piston engine which worked very well in both directions. Keep up your good videos.
I think the wobbler is a great project to show the basics of motion mechanics - stroke, angle, momentum, stored energy, linear, circular .... lots of things to talk about and nice to watch. Cheers
Building a wobbler engine is only the start Michel. It's a slippery slope. This engine leads to many other engines. Great little engine and using some parts you already had. Whatever next? Cheers Nobby
I didn't realize the jaws on your chuck would pitch that far, so it makes sense that you'd need to drill some alignment holes to hold the jaws in place. That's said the air motor turned out great! 👍👍
Great job! I may try to make one myself. I always enjoy seeing a shaper at work. Maybe a couple of drops of Locktite around those bearings? Thanks for the video.
Entertaining little build, well done. I have been having ideas floating around in my head to build an air-powered "Steam" engine from some of the 10kg of old Aluminum castings I have now as I'm running out of projects. 👍
Running the shaper made the pain from the new 30mm tumor not hurt,,, thx Micheal, really cool and looked fun to build. Nope, No pancakes this time, liquids dw my G- Tube mostly. Take care my frie my friend, Sammie knows "Yoi will Get it Done". Bear
Hi Michel. The wobbler engine you built is so cool, so you. Thank you for introducing Ade Swash to your audience. He has so many fantastic ideas and videos, and a lovely person to boot. 👏👏👍😀
As always, an entertaining video showing an incredible work. Other Y-tubers would launch plenty of videos before we would se the motor running. Really well done shop work, and video editing!
i am in the same boring situation. I am opening a shaft to 14.7mm. But the smallest boring bar I have near long enough is a 16mm minimum. so i am waiting for an asian import boring bar.
Coffee, toast and a side of Rustinox. Great start to Sunday 👍 🇬🇧
Nice. Thanks.

Thanks. Will do.

And it's easy to build.
great little experimental project Michel
turned out well👍👍👍👍
atb
Kev
And it's fun to do.
Cool little engine, Michel. No castings, no expensive materials, no plans, no problems😊
And easy to build.
Nice little wobbler 👍👍
And it even has wobbulator bearings 😂😂
That's what you get with worn parts :)
Nice work on the wobbler. Also, thanks for the explanation on the chuck re grinding the jaws.
My pleasure.
Cool little machine! And the price was right too, lol!
And fun to build.

I think I will make more of these. It's fun to do.

Thanks.
The video over here across the pond in the USA would be called a follow along with me video.
That's good. Why not?

Go for it. It's fun to do.

Hi Michel, a lovely little project and it runs perfectly, well done. Have a great weekend!!
Thanks.
Enjoyed the video. Looks like you had fun making the wobbler! (of course you did, you used the shaper. 😉)
Indeed, fun it was.
😄 You make everything look so easy! Thanks Rusti. 👍
That's because it is easy. Just do it.

Thanks Bear.
If the hole that holds the bearing is a little too big, just pop a few centre punches on the inside diameter to deform and offer a small interference.
That's exactly what I did.
Cool thing a ma jig. Well done Rusti.
Thanks Randy.

Great off the cuff work! Enjoyed.
Thanks.

Thanks Stefan.
I took your inspiration and ground my jaws. Great result Thank you. ( used an old but good quality 24v dc motor with a shaft adaptor)👍
That's good.
Worked out well. Looks cool too :) Cheers Rob
Thanks. It's easy to build.
Looks like you are wobbling to me. 😀
Absolutely.
i like it! a nice Wobbler session to welcome the weekend ⚙👍 thank you!
Thanks.
Very nice work. I wand to build one soon after I have finished repairing my lathe
Go for it, Rusty.
Happy Friday to you sir!
That's really cool. I may have to make one just for fun.
Go for it.
Fun project!
Absolutely.
Great video!! Next step a model steam locomotive?
Not sure...
Very nice thingy, with lots of moving thingy ma things :)
Things...
fun build
Absolutely.
i am in the same boring situation. I am opening a shaft to 14.7mm. But the smallest boring bar I have near long enough is a 16mm minimum. so i am waiting for an asian import boring bar.
You will get it done. I'm sure.
Michel, you did indeed get lucky on the boring! Is there any way that you can change the SAE boring head to Metric?
Don't know. I never thought at it.
@@Rustinox Now that you have, just do it! 🙂
👍😎
Thanks.
I think the opposite of “bell mouthed” is “bell end” but consult Doubleboost he can explain it better than me :)
Well, it's not very important :)
😁
Thanks.

Thanks for letting me know. I fixed it.
