Don't know if this has been shown before, but it's a triumph of Czech glasswork. Bohemian glass was always highly regarded, but it's difficult to think how the con rod was fitted to the crank.

Wow! That's remarkable.
I really think it's a great engine -- I love being able to see the water boil and the steam in the cylinder. Very very cool.
Thanks for sharing!!!
