You may have seen today’s arrival in another thread, well this is why I had to pay up for the 10H… I have had the S-50 the longest which I know was built by John Coleman and came from IndianaRog. He was an ebay seller that went by “The Steam Chest” 10+ years ago, and I believe also a Stuart and PM Research dealer. About a year ago I spotted the PMR twin on an auction and thought it had to also be built by him… fast forward to this past week, I bought a little Bing on ebay and while looking through the seller’s youtube channel, I spotted the 10H. Again, so many similarities that they have to all be built by John… The seller wouldn’t make a deal outside of ebay, but ended up taking a best offer after he listed it on ebay. The ebay seller bought it from Australia, so I cannot confirm where it originally came from…
Some similarities I can think of on all three engines:
- Two-tone matching green paint
- Red accents in all the same places
- John Coleman governor kits
- All have the o-ring on lubricator knob with matching cracks/deterioration
- Green belting used for governors
- Wood bases all about the same color
Again, I only can confirm the one to be built by John Coleman, but I think they’re a perfect matched set!
