Was playin’ around today with some borrowed goodies… A wobbler engine cast iron and runs well, albeit a STEAM HOG! Theoretically I could put butter cream into the accessory and make butter but I don’t want to gum it up with butter.
The brass boiler is a beast. Runs on a regular Coleman camp stove burner. Takes a while to get to steam, but expected on a large boiler as such.
This engine needs 20 psi or better to run. Couldn’t run it on a Jensen boiler.
Enjoy! TxLabMan shoutout again for the borrowed items! I am having fun.

The wobbler engine was made by mrpete222 aka Tubalcain. The parts are made from his aluminum castings. A couple years ago he had an auction of some of his steam engines and other engines that he made. I bought three steam engines from him and an eltro-magnetic engine (that didn't work).
I had only run it on air. So, Travis steamed it up for the first time.
I found a video, among his thousands of videos, of a similar engine that he made.
