This is a little plant I just finished, its based on a Jensen #70 & is mounted on the #25/75 metal base which gives me the additional room to mount a #15 generator behind the 90 degree turned Jensen #70 engine, both Engine & generator has had roller ball bearings installed in the axles (2) ea. the firebox/chimney has been repainted with VHT "burnt copper" paint, I added one of my pressures gauges & put a custom ID tag on it. the generator has had the original 3"axle replaced with a 4.1/8" axle & has (2) 5 tiered pulleys on either end. it is a super smooth runner & I'm having a lot of fun with it. the one belt can run up/down the four higher ratio's, the smallest ratio is for driving accessories.
