Wow, that's really neat. Can you tell us about your steam generation system? Pressure cooker?
Old pressure cooker . $5.00 at a yard sale. The old ones come with that nice pressure guage, but the pressure relief is set to pop off around 20psi. Lots of volume for bigger engines, but not enough pressure to run bigger governed engines, or big engines under heavy loads. Still, it is great for running steam engines at shows with a big turkey fryer propane burner under it!And no inspection nonsense.
