Hey Fred!

A special section just for steam engines and boilers, as without these you may as well fit a sail.

I ran across these images on a website and thought of your preference for paddle wheels. :D
The stuff of dreams!

My Grandpa told me when I was 8 or so that “You have to learn by the mistakes of others! Because you will NOT live long enough to make them all yourself.” At that age I though I had forever to learn everything... ;-)

On first glance a nice visual image, I think they call this "Steampunkt Art"?? Being an engineer I immediately look at the mechanism to see what is going on, and this piece of art is only for visuals.

Thanks for the thought, I think machines are generally real eye candy for me.
