Falk Overtype
« on: March 16, 2021, 07:21:59 pm »
Hello all, just throwing this out there...I know it's a slim chance but I am looking for parts to complete my Great Grandfather's
engine. It's missing a lot. I believe he disassembled it to clean it up and then passed away and the box of parts were not found,
only the boiler, and some pieces/parts. I have smaller versions of the engine, but would love to be able to put his together.
I appreciate any help!

Tim:

I have the one in the below video.  It cannot be steamed due to the end being covered in a tar material to plug the sight glass.  Other than that issue, it is in good running order with the original burner.



I measured mine:

Base: 7 1/2" x 5"
Flywheel: 3"
Boiler: 7 1/2"
Total Length with Boiler and End Cap for Chimney: 8 3/4"
Total Height to Top of Chimney: 10 1/2"

If you are interested, email me at txlabman@icloud.com.
