The beauty of the Baker fan , as in real life , this can be used for any engine you want to test a load on.

Bruce its so simple but so very clever, the bearings make the fan spin so effortlessly, but the air resistance and the faster the fans spin the heavier the load is on the engine is simple brilliance and works great on toy and model steam engines.
