Re: WTB: Boiler feed hand pump
Hey Den, thanks for that suggestion! I noticed that those kits have some machining required for assembly. Any idea how much? I have a pretty limited setup right now...

Re: Hello

Re: Fairbanks, Morse & Co. 3 x 2 x 4
Yeah it's a pretty good find and in remarkable condition considering how old it is and that it's been sitting in somebody's garage pulled apart for 20 years. There is minor rust and a LOT of oil and dust turned crude that I have been chipping away at but I think I should have her running shortly. I'...

WTB: Boiler feed hand pump
Hey Gents,

Thanks!

I grew up literally a mile away from Greenfield Village and Henry Ford Museum. In fact I spent a few summers working there in High School and College. It is an amazing place to see steam engines of all kinds as well as many other priceless historical exhibits. The paddle steamer as I understand it w...

Re: Navy K For Sale
Wesley,
Thanks for clarifying and thanks for Scripps' info! Yeah, the price is ridiculous but I figured somebody would find it interesting.
