The Steamboating Forum

Hello I just found this forum when I was on RC Groups forum and someone posted a video of a American Walking Beam Engine powered side wheel paddle boat. I googled Marchall Bremme Valve gear and found the thread on a American Walking Beam Engine. I do not have a full size steamboat but have a couple of Radio Controlled steam powered model boats. I may not be able to contribute much to the forum, but will lurk and copy some of the designs and fittings on some of my models.
Regards,
Gerald.

Welcome to the group. Have you made any steam powered models? Pictures please, you can just attach without using another site if the pictures are small, I think 250k total, 3 pictures total per post.

There are a few models pictured on this site, look under "Stuart No. 1".

Welcome, im in your area. just north of the city.
