Hi everybody, i've been into steam for about a year now, collecting some antique/vintage model steam engines, and I also build some steam engines from stratch. My collection so far is this,
Empire b-30
Wilesco d5 (mid sixties gray base)
Wilesco d141 (C. 1980)
Pm research 8m (twin cylinder marine.)
And I just bought an early cast iron flywheel jensen 5 off craigslist, but it's in Ohio craigslist, and should be here by Tuesday. I also made a vertical single acting oscillator out of brass bar stock. Anyway, just wanted to say hi

Hi Connor, and a big Scottish welcome.
You'll find it an easy going friendly place that can be very addictive.
I myself have made friends from all over the world, and expanded my collection greatly since I got here.
The one drawback is that the purchase of new steam items does tend to make inroads in the old wallet.
Hope to chat some steam with you soon.
