Ed does top notch work.  He built two boats for me and his son built a locomotive that I acquired.

Always wanted an elbow engine, even though they never existed as a full size steam engine, as far as I know.

Finicky little buggers as I understand it, and it looks as though they would be, but a good one will actually run pretty well according to videos I've seen.
