Welcome to Andrew's Engineering!
Thanks for stopping by. I have designed and built a number of things, some complex,
some not, it doesn't matter whether it's mechanical or electrical etc. You'll find some of the projects
here on this site to give you an idea what I do.

Latest News & Current Projects
We've been busy with a few projects including the hydrosonic pump, making cast iron piston rings from raw materials to rebuild
an air compressor, and also cast and machined a retro-fit air intake setup that adapts a standard small engine (kohler)
air cleaner which is much better than what was originally used. The hydrosonic pump is posted and i'll get some images
of the rings and the compressor air filter setup posted at a later date.

Here's a hot tube ignition we built for an engine. Electrical type ignition took
the place of these long ago, but hey it still comes in handy, is simple and it works.

After being in engineering & development for over 2 months now things are getting
close being finished. This is not just any oil burner. In this picture this burner is burning
waste motor oil. With the rising cost of heating fuels somethings got to give, so we've developed
our own waste oil burner. Updated 09/22/2006

Here's the Andrew's Engineering steam traction engine. This is an aproximate 1/4 scale traction engine
we designed and built. This was a project I started planning a few years before it finally materialized. This
engine is fired with wood or coal. You can find more info on this engine on the engines page.
