Bay-com.com also sells videos on how to machine small "steam" (i.e. compressed air) engines.
You can also find kits containing castings for such engines for sale in Home Shop Machinist and Machinist's Workshop magazines.
And, of course Technical Video Rental rents videos (with plans) if you want to make one.
