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

Greetings all,

I currently have a PM Research kit, and plan on purchasing a few more,,,
But can�t seem to find any other US or N/America based sellers of kits.
The couple others I knew of in the past, seem to have closed shop.

The UK kits are great but with exchange and shipping, they start to get really $$$

I�m looking for cast iron casting kits to build.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Regards,
Ken J

Thanks Jan,

Yes I�m looking to do my own machining.

I like the very different look of that MERY Engine.
Might have to consider that one.

My dream kit is going to be some type of beam engine.
I�m guessing I�ll have to get a job in my retirement and save up my nickels for a Stuart Kit

And,, eventually want to work on a hit and miss kit.

Thanks again Jan,

If you think of anything else please let me know.

Regards,
Ken

Yes of course, how stupid of me to forget MiniSteam 

Had my mind so twisted around manufacturers, of which i know so little, since i don�t do kits myself, that i completely forgot about retailers.

Quite a few kits to find in there as well:

Thanks all,

So checking some of the suppliers,

500$ to thousands is typical for some of the nicer kits?

When I watch Gil�s videos at the cabin fever expo, and all the engines on display at different people�s tables, it seams many people have many thousands of dollars into there collection.

I wonder what I can get for one of my kidneys???

Maybe I�ll beg on one of the busy city corners....
      
                my sign will say.....
     

            PLEASE HELP

      Need Money for Steam Kits!!



Does anyone ever do a group buy for kits?

Cheers all,

Ken
