New Feed Water System
« on: August 14, 2023, 12:26:54 pm »
   Well, I just added a feed water system to my Wilesco D22 boiler. I think the little Microcosm water pump looks pretty good with the boiler. I have it running off a 20 lb propane tank, and I have two gallons of distilled water on hand , so I can steam that thing until the cows come home, or I get tired of playing with it , which ever comes first !

Well you have certainly taken that unit to the next level, and made it so that it can service any orphan engine, including its original D22.

First class powerplant "system" you have created for yourself there!

Well done I say, well done INDEED!!!
