Bischoff 262 Compound finished
« on: June 08, 2021, 01:44:46 pm »
Hello, my Bischoff 2-cylinder marine engine is finally ready
on a heavy oak board. I used blued sheet metal for the surface.
All steam / water lines are attached and the boiler / motor has been tested with compressed air. Maybe I'll steam it in the fall and make a video.
It's for sure one of my favorite pieces; D.

Wonderful Arnold.

I hope you will make a video of the engine, even if it is not of it running on steam.

Have you tested it on air?

What a treasure!!!!

Hi Juergen - "The grass on the other side is always greener" but fact is:
Germany is the bigger playground - only problem: Prices are easy 50% higher
than we are used to. Thanks for your comment and have a nice day, Arnold
