New Steam Engine Arrived from Jin's Shop
« on: September 03, 2019, 09:25:47 pm »
I think I got lucky with this one. It had a starting bid of 199 usd. I put in a bid and no one else did so to my delight and surprise, I got a notice I had won.

Fast forward a couple weeks and here it is!

Beauty of an engine, but small enough that I think it may be going into Simone's collection  ;)

Hi Nick. I was thinking the same thing.
When she gets back from Brazil, I will surprise her with it.

I’ve got two of those.  One with a horizontal boiler, which I liked it so much I got one with a vertical boiler.  Need to build ships for them and run them in the pond out back.  They are incredibly smooth and will run quite slowly.

Bonjour,
This machine should not die on a shelf, but run in a boat  ;) :
