Hey everyone, I am new to the model engine thing and I am trying to find the best place to start. I am having trouble finding kits or even designs online and I dont really know what to look for. I am just learning about engines and wanted to build a model to help me understand a little more about how they work and go together. Any advice on where to start? :D

Go to the Motor Boy's web site. I am designing and building my first engine too and their website has told me just about every thing I need to know.

There is a source page on their website that has just about every good website out there.
There is also a website called animated engines that may or may not be of help.

Do you have all the tools?
Also try liney machine, they offer a variety or steam engine kits and such.
sites.google.com/site/lineymachine/
Hope this helps and good luck.
