Why would you want them? Making a true turbojet requires incredibly complex engineering and manufacturing, and amateur ones can be extremely dangerous.

actualyy turbo jets are not that complex to make

i hav an idea about how to make one out of a turbocharger but i still need som schematcs,and i need one for a model airplane

If you know that then shurly you have a pretty good idea of how to make one.

 

oh and this is the second site you get when you google "homemade turbojets" http://pfranc.com/projects/turbine/top.htm it appears to be a summary of diffetent sites with info on homemade turbine engines among them are a few involving the use of turbo chargers.

In my defense, I would say something like this or this would be rather complex and difficult to build. And I don't think that building one out of a turbocharger qualifies as making one from scratch, which is how your question was phrased. Almost any schematic you find is going to be that kind.

I assumed he meant full-size. If you're talking about model airplane-size, flyboy, then it isn't quite as dangerous, or as complicated, especially if you do a PDE (pulse detonation engine), like H2SO4 was talking about.

i would make a pulsejet but they dont last as long as a real gas turbojet

pulsejets need lots of maintinance and u hav to replace the valves every time u use it

they may be easier to make but they are harder to start etc...

i just need schematics or my dad wont let me make one :mad:

So do you want one for a model or full-size?

 

And, either way, going for a normal jet engine is a heck of a lot less complicated than either a PDE or a turbojet. And as far as I know, PDE's aren't that bad.

no ive been to this guys site

i admire his work on pulsejets but he hasnt realy done anything with TURBOJETS. i kno how to make a pulse jet and a PDE
