Hi all,

Just recently got interested in steam engines and have purchased a small Logan lathe to possibly machine parts.

I picked up a two cylinder engine after a chance find on market place. I’ll post some pictures on the engine thread.

Long term plan would be to turn that engine into a working 15’+ steam powered launch

Cheers
Markus

It was not easy to convince Allnutt. All his shop training had given him a profound prejudice against inexact work, experimental work, hit-or-miss work.
