Home made steam engine from odds and ends
« on: July 06, 2012, 03:09:38 AM »
Hi everyone

                   I built a steam engine from an old lawnmower engine and other bits and pieces. It looks a bit rough but it works. I think it about 29 years ago when I finnished it and was a project to see how quick I could build one.
