Hello Gents,
Embarrassing question this time. My drawings for the Model M boiler shows a Water Column for the sight gauge, try-cocks, etc.
But the drawing doesn't show anything about the enclosure for the boiler and I don't even know whether the column is inside or outside of the enclosure.
I have searched for photos extensively and to my eye, they are installed either way. Is that true?
Any recommendations?
Thanks again,
CannonFodder (Robert)

I've always done these outside the boiler.CannonFodder wrote: ..
