I've always loved steam. Knew I could never have a real steam engine too big and you need a boiler. Have been looking for a model came across this one. Built by a man in England. Flywheel is 5 inches and weighs 20 lbs. Will run on 5 lbs of air. you can go to you tube at www.youtube.com/watch?v=8ee-DRJT6x8&feature=emb_logo to watch it run.

Bill, when we get to the UP this summer to escape the Texas heat, will need to stop by your place to see your "stuff "
Do you have any single cylinder hi & miss engines for sale ?

I have a 3hp Fair Banks Z i might sell today. As time goes along there will be others. I have 11 engines. The Z is complete with a hot mag. Needs to be put together and beautified. Come see me. Always like to have visitors. Maybe I'll share some of my useless info with you I have a head full.

Mike, you are very welcome to stop. I think I may be able to find a engine for you to purchase. Hopefully my tower and A602 will be up and running. Give me a little advanced notice about when you'll be up this way. Looking forward to meeting you! Bill

I was supposed to get mine yesterday. Got a surprise call from a place that I put my name on a list, but didn't think they would do them. I could not go, ice all over roads and such, so I re-scheduled for the 18th. As with most of the country, we are in the throes of winter. But I won't or can't go out in it like Mike does. I'm a wintertime weenie.
Call Dan Benjamin for parts. P M me for the phone number.

I get to go get my shot today. My daughter forced me too.
That's my story and I'm sticking to it.
