Paul,
This drawing has fewer teeth on the stationary and rotor gears than the
actual engine to make cutting out parts easier.
When I get the first article cut out and assembled I will send a photo if
you are interested.
I developed the epitrochoid chamber shape graphically as I did the gear
tooth shapes.
The parts are labeled with the materials intended to be used for the first
article only.

If nothing else it will make a good demo of how the rotary works.

Believe me, drawing this on AutoCad Lite made me really appreciate Felix
Wankel's genius !!
To come up with this geometry with no previous example to work from IS pure
genius !

(See attached file: wankel parts3.dwg)

Thank you for your help and the photo you sent me.

Tom Henry
