Gracos Kid Posted June 10 Share Posted June 10 I'm impressed with not only your friend's skill and talent, but also your collection of interesting steam engines......

But the water to make the steam is heated by burners that aren't fueled by steam.

Could be, but I know it's not gasoline and probably not a gas/oil mix of any kind. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
