I love it!  :D

Gotta have a slightly smaller one on top as a steam dome.  It wouldn't be right with anything less.  Two artillery brasses open end to open end with a brass band wrapped at the joint and rivetted in place. 

Reflective thought ... the bases of the brasses would be high points so maybe two steam domes?  It would be unique if nothing else.

BEst regards,

I've been rethinking my "Neo-Victorian" engines in terms of a post-apocalyptic environment.  I'm not sure if the seed of this was planted by your suggestion or not, but it took hold and gave me a lot more leeway than a "normal" steampunk world would. 

My most recent entry at http://kludges-other-blog.blogspot.com is a brief on this concept. 

Just a thought.

BEst regards,

Kludge
