    Such happy memories. I had two of these in Dacca, Bangladesh . I lived there as a young kid in the early eighties. My favorite of the few toys during the monsoon. Many thanks!

    Thanks for letting me know about pop pops in the latest Miyazaki movie.
    It’s best to follow the directions exactly (aluminum drink can) the first time through, then experiment with variations like candy tins, etc.

    It’s great to see the originals are comming back! I just saw one of these in a movie “Ponyo”. I was so fancinated!! I plan to make my own!! Now, does a candy tin sound good for a engine?

    Well done, Nicoloist, on your video response, and you might get even more power and sound if you adjust the angle.

    The pop pop engine …
    The pop pop engine is an exacting project with unfamiliar procedures, so it can take more than one attempt. Good for you for persisting until it worked! There is a world-wide forum about pop pop boat experiments, linked in the blue information box to the right. Also, there are more DIY science projects at sciencetoymakerDOTorg (I cant put links in this comments section).

    Heey men!
    I made it 3 times, the first 2 didnt work but that might be my failure (sorry for my bad english) The 3th worked great! Its very funny. I am now thinking of a other creation with this steam-engine. So if you got nice idea’s of other creation’s with this cind off engines ill hear it. Thanks!

    Glad to hear it’s working well. Duel engine compartment sounds interesting–consider a video response.

    I’m not sure I understand your question, but you you can make your own by following the directions of the rest of the video. Or you can buy ones imported from India and China. Just Google pop pop engine.
