Mention of bar-stock engines brings to mind a design I did four years back at the request of Mike Rehmus of Model Engine Builder magazine. The design drew on the observations arrising from the review of Beginner engine designs series that ran here some years ago. Basically I wanted no milling no thread cutting no engineering at watch-making scale and piston aside one that required no close fits over a deep bore length. Then I also wanted an engine that was not unattractive yet did not look like a Midge or Little Dragon clone. Mike added to the restrictions requesting (more like demanding actually) that all machining should be capable of being performed on table top machines like the excellent little Sherline lathe. This (pun alert) turned out to be remarkably difficult. Three prototypes were made and anything that I had to devote more than casual precision to was redesigned (which is why the published version appears slightly different to the prototypes). The MEN style CAD drawings were handed over to Mike who re-drafted them in 3D CAD. The plans and first part of a serialization showing detailed construction have now appeared in issue 21 of Model Engine Builder.
