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

Good afternoon from Brooklyn...

  Well, I'm very happy to see that this is a popular
topic.  First run videos are way cool, even when not
perfect.

  So, I've added the first steamup of my Weeden 672.
The boiler bottom leaked onto the heating element so
I managed to solder the leaking areas and it no longer
leaks.  For now.  I need to come up with a way to fix
the S/V filler that is missing a chunk.  I'm thinking
maybe put the steampipe where it belongs and drip
solder onto it until it is sealed.  I added some
pix of the trouble spot.  Advice is always appreciated.



Thanks,
Wayne
