Richard,
Those are great pictures!
That report was mentioned in Stan Grayson's book OLD MARINE ENGINES:
quote:...and in 1904, two Cornell students, G.H. Bayne Jr., and E.C. Speiden, did a thesis examining the Lozier one-lunger for their degrees in mechanical engineering. At the time, the Lozier two-stroke was available in single and twin-cylinder modesl of from 3 to 15hp.

Thanks Richard, I tried finding that report after reading Graysons comments at the nearby Cornell Engineering Library years ago but was not successful locating it. Sibley building still stands but it is now part of the Arts Quad. Some great early engine builders came out Sibley College to say the least. |
