Thanks for that coal scuttle idea . For a while , I have wanted some accessories for my little Wilesco traction engine, so I have to make one of those things !

I also recommend a replacement boiler. Ebay has new ones for $70
That tarnished muck could be sign of a rotten boiler? Seems suspicious. Also the crack, how did it cracks? Was the water frozen at some point?
