4"-5" boiler and firebox- Solved - ThanksI am still looking for a small boiler set up for my smallest boat. An old horizontal Meccano boiler would be nice- -I even think a Mamod Minor boiler might work..
I only have 7" to work with as far as length for the boiler and engine.
So old, needing clean up and work is Ok- If it comes with the nastiest base... no problem.But if you have a boiler on a firebox I would like to take a look at it..
Did I mention I am trying to do this cheaply?  I have a small horizontal boiler to even swap - it is just too darn long
Here is a shot of it...
It is a tad too long at 5.5" long and 2" in diameter- 3/4 "shorter and I would be all good! It has a SV and filler plug and a fitted steam line - No firebox- Clean as whistle and in great shape
So I am being a little picky but what the hey? Thanks for any and all replies
