New member who needs a quick lesson

[hugh]

Seeing as this is the only forum I can find, I'm hoping that some of you guys can help my out. I'm really interested in turbine engines, and would love to build one! The only issue is that I have no idea where to start. Can any of you provide me with a"to-do" list on the construction of one? It can be as thorough as you want, because I really need a guiding hand in all of this. Thanks!

Hi Hugh,

I would advise buying the Kamps and Schreckling books as a starter. There is a lot of information in these books.

The Schreckling engine is much easier to build if you have limited machinery at your disposal. Another option is to build a gas turbine using a turbocharger with an external combustion chamber.
