Drawn here by the videos posted on YouTube. Now that is true art, I've seen the Mona Lisa but I'll take your engine any day! I think Leonardo would say the same thing.
Former USN Nuke submariner and commercial nuke plant operator now a gov't contractor in the ME. While I am a reasonable mechanic, I am not a machinist...therefore I will have to purchase either all the parts or a complete engine/boiler. My dream setup would be a triple and coal fired horizontal fire tube boiler.

Hi.
Welcome to the forum. I take it you found the video of the Triple on Youtube. We have parts for another one too.
I hope you enjoy the forum as much as the other people do.
