Nice one, will look forward to the vid, a couple of people here own the slide valve traction engine but I think you will be the first with a slide valve Mamod roller | ||

Happy news! Let us see it when it arrives!

(image gimmick courtesy of imageshack.us) __________________ Just a couple of weeks ago I sent a 5lb. parcel to AU via USA mail from Miami. It cost about $48US to ship, annnd.... it was guaranteed to get there the following Tuesday or postage would be refunded. The recipient got the packet on Monday! It was like, only five days in transit, Florida to Queensland! Ho ho ho, true! Ho ho ho, I also know there's no damned snow in AU in summer. And it's the same thing here in Miami: no snow in winter! But what the hell, let it pass. How often do you see steam rollers in any weather any more? 
Cheers, Reid edit: me typos were showing |

... cool one, Clinton! As much as I love the osciliators, Mamod is finally using slide valve! What took them so long? I'm sure you'll love it - please keep us posted! I'm very much tempted to get one myself ...
Cheers, mate! |

I hope it arrives quickly, I am too am curious fro a review of the slide action Roller.
Wonder if MiniSteam has a Storefront or is he only Mail Order/Online. His address is only about an hour and a half from here and I have friends in the area to visit this coming year. |
