# 8 - THE GIANT VERTICAL
« on: May 02, 2021, 04:27:36 am »
Sunday No. 8 - here I have some pictures from this magnificent vertical Steam Monster -
it is coal fired and only for outdoors. The design is similar to WBD Bischoff
engines - but all much larger. The heigh is about 35". The Boiler is made from
steel and is fitted with all necessary things like a Blower or a Water Pump. The
Flywheel is an art of itself and makes the engine run smooth and powerful. I think
this one was built by a very talented engineer. Enjoy and have a nice Day, Arnold
