Office of Steam Forum for Model & Toy Steam Gas & Hot Air Engines

Here's the 90 with grooved flywheel with transplanted boiler.  This #90 "Power Boy" matches up better with my #92 "Play Boy", so I assume it is a earlier model.  Which perhaps the grooved flywheel is Post WWII as they were using parts on hand?  Total guess work but its odd that some engines would have an accessory's flywheel.  But I like odd and having two different engines more or less rules out some previous owner doing some kind of a "fix".

I didn't make a video, I have lots of other 90 videos.  But this one is a strong runner and will chug along around 75~80 volts.  When at 125 it will nearly walk itself off the towel!

Edit:
I am still debating if I am going to transplant the sight glass fittings from the original tank.  Like the #92 "Play Boy" they are flat at the top, where as my transplanted tank are beveled.  These little details tend to annoy me but removing the sight glass fittings off the tank I try to avoid...
