Sad to say Ken Hall passed away on June 16 2012 He had the Oesa with an Elliot bay triple. Tried to download a site from you tube. Maybe some one can help Den Just type in Ken Hall-Oesa on Youtube

Re: Ken Hall has passed away
I am really sorry to hear that Ken has passed away.
We spoke a number of times on the phone and corresponded by real mail when I was thinking about building the EB Triple
He was a big help and a day out on Oesa was the highlight of my "Fact-Finding" trip to the US and Canada in 2000
He had a very deep understanding of steam and engineering and his workmanship was superb
With Greg Linden from Denver Ken was one of those we can credit with being able to one of the fathers of this engine in machinable form

Re: Ken Hall has passed away
Oesa is now in the very good hands of Gordon Sullivan of Washington State. For those of you not familiar with Gordon, he a is a long time steamer. Has owned all sorts of steamers including a Stanley automobile and a large wood steam tug, Moonlight.
He had a devastating shop fire in which, along with many other treasures, he lost his beautiful launch, Quickstep II. With a good deal help from his friends, Oesa was purchased from Ken's widow and now lives in Custer, WA.
Gordon is very familiar with Oesa having known Ken for many years. A sunny end to some sad events.
