Hi Pavel, you have that engine running beautifully.

And have made a great start on the boiler.  Clearly up to your usual standard

Hi, I've been working on a boiler for my model for a while now, I've started connecting the pipes and the last thing I have in the works is a hand pump. Next time it's finished, I'll share some photos with you.....so far so good. Pavel

it's ok, square nuts have the same side dimensions as hexagonal nuts…..

Hello everyone,
it’s been a while since I last posted anything here. So to make up for it, I’m sharing a link to a new video.
I’ve now managed to finish the electrical part. What’s left is to complete the hand pump and the firebox, and after that I’ll be able to start testing the model on live steam….  Pavel

Hello,

I would like to share a video of my handmade, fully functional Greene steam engine model with a Trevithick-type boiler.

After more than three years of work, including designing, machining, casting and assembly, the model is finally almost complete.

I hope you enjoy watching it!


Best regards,

That’s a beautiful engine, and a beautiful steam plant you put together. I think the light on the valve gear is probably my favorite touch.
