Here\'s a 6 cylinder radial I built for my grandson a while back.
Some acrylic so he can see the movement.

That is neat. Does it run with compressed air?

Yes, runs on air.
I found a 5\' webbed gear on ebay, just for show.

It runs so quietly and smooth. Does the air exhaust out somewhere?

That is really neat in it\'s design and how clean it looks while being functional also. Is that one of your own designs?
