Stuart 10H steam plantI bought this engine for myself on my 18th birthday 2 years ago. The model is fitted with a verticle copper boiler with lever safety valve, pressure gauge, sight glass and is fired by gas. A hand-pump and water tank is also fitted. The steam is used to drive a stuart 10H steam plant, which is mounted on a brick plinth. I hope sometime in the future to fit a pulley on the crankshaft to drive my Wilesco workshop.
Here is a short video of the plant in steam. The gas pressure was a little low so the engine wasn't running to it's best
Enjoy!!!!

Very nice - that is evidently a well-built no. 10, as it is delightfully quiet in operation. I am wondering whether it is a good idea to have that gas tank on its side, though: you might end up with the liquid coming down the gas line and causing a flare.

That looks nice and sounds nicer.

I'm worried about the gas cylinder myself so I am going to buy a gas tank from stuart turner .
