Title: Re: 2 more Jensen model 10s to add to the set.
Post by: Randy Tucker on September 17, 2019, 06:52:52 pm: Haven't had time to start on the 10 or the 20 to restore them yet. Had a lot going on lately. If you ever come to NC get in touch with me. Always happy to have people look at my collection.

Post by: Dr.Rev.DelmarMacReady on September 07, 2019, 09:28:33 am: If one of these came from the auction I think it did, you did really well on it. Somehow, my registration for the auction slippednthrought the cracks and I didn't notice until it was on the blocks so my dang bid got kicked out.

Nice additions. I'd bet a visit to your shop would be jaw-dropping.

Yes already talked to Jed about a boiler.

Would love to see that one finished off with one of Jed's boilers 8)

Bad thing is don't realy know how many different ones they are. If I find one different then what I have I try to add it to the collection. Just having fun doing it.

I look forward to seeing the Big Power Plant with a new riveted boiler and black box.

Post by: BBToyz on August 29, 2019, 10:42:03 am: I like them both very much. I am still looking to have one of these rare Jensens 8)

Great score Randy.

Jed’s boilers are top notch.

I have three awaiting the right projects.

Post by: St Paul Steam on August 28, 2019, 09:27:45 pm: Wonderful additions Randy , although I know your more than capable of fabricating all needed items , Jed could make those things for you as well if you don't want to .

Post by: Stoker on August 28, 2019, 08:50:02 pm: Nice additions to anyone's collections, to be sure!!!
Title: Re: 2 more Jensen model 10s to add to the set.
Post by: Randy Tucker on August 28, 2019, 08:46:36 pm: Would love to find a original black firebox and riveted boiler for it. But if I can't I can make them. If anyone has a 3" riveted boiler and or smooth black firebox and smoke stack mount they would sell please let me know.

Post by: RedRyder on August 28, 2019, 08:31:52 pm: Great acuisitions, Randy!

Any chance the original riveted boiler and black firebox are to be found?
If not, they can be duplicated.

Post by: Randy Tucker on August 28, 2019, 07:05:42 pm: Picked up 2 more 10s to add to the set. Well I guess technically only 1. The one is realy a model 20 big power plant. But it's made on same design as a 10. So I'm up to 12 different model 10s now and still hunting.
