Little Kathy

This engine is the Little Kathy from Tiny Power. It was my first engine and machining project, and I would recommend it as a beginning project for anyone wanting to build a steam engine.

 

1890's Oil Field Engine

 

This engine is the 1890 Oil Field engine from PM research, a litttle bit gussied up. The kit was in iron, but I made a bronze

steam chest cover, head. I also added a cylinder oiler from my Corliss kit. The finish is "Tool Black", which I have found

works very nicely on cast iron.

 

Aeromotor

 

This unusual model is from "Pieces of 8" It has an 8 stroke cycle. There are some challanges to this model, but when

running it's very smooth exciting to hear. It runs very cool, and powers the pump nicely. I chose to use electronic

ignition instead of the make break ignitor.
