Jon,
Here's a nice thread on building a boiler by a chap called Firebird over on the HMEM forum. It's a long read, but he did a nice job of building a boiler. You don't need to build one this fancy but it'll give you some insight as to the makings of a model boiler. Here's the URL: http://www.homemodelenginemachinist.com/index.php?topic=2092.0
When you get to this part of the build ask lots of questions. I'm sure some of us older pharts will be able to point you in the right direction.

Here is a couple of books on model engineering. http://madmodder.net/index.php?topic=420.0
The the next two are on flash steam generation water in steam out non pressure vessel they are available on the used book sites and may being reprinted. Bogg and some of the other Old pharts from across the pond can speak to the thousands that have gained their knowledge from these books.
Along with a host of other books on projects from the pages of the village press and the greats of model machining. all the way back to page 11. Welding and other metal working books with brief descriptions.
