If I don't manage to arrange a pool for STIA.....

Well there's always the Minipool, AKA The Static Testing Tank. This has the advantage of being able to be used indoors. Not a bad thing in February.


It also means you can see what is going on underwater


It just hasn't got a very long run.

Will a Basset Lowke Streamlinier fit in there?/

The tank measures 1060x170mm (that's 41 3/4 X 6 3/4 in English). How big is a BL Streamlinier (sic)?

DAM DAM DAM DAM ITS NOT WIDE ENOUGH. Its long enoug but only 2 or 3" to spare.

Interesting concept

Be brave James, we'll have a bigger pool at STIA. Suggest you keep a lookout for some of those chemical handwarmers.

It isnt size, its quantity. The question is, How Many Should I get?

This has been the problem throughout my steam collecting.

Just another one would complement those I have already so well.

Can a collection ever be complete?
