In Retrospect

Daine and I spent hours and hours making sure our engine was as efficient as possible. As you can see in our engine video, however, it stuggles. In the interest of time, we rushed the final fase of our project - attaching the displacer and balloon-piston to the crankshaft. We ended up using very coarse and slightly rusty steel wire for our attachment, which obviously was not very flexible. The fact that our engine ran anyways I believe is an accomplishment in of itself. One of these days we will pick the project back up again and redo a few things. But I think Daine and I would both agree that we need a bit of a break :)
