Lovely S50, how have you mounted the boiler to the plinth? |
Two bolts from underneath countersunk so the heads were flush they screw into two bronze bushes silver soldered to the base of the boiler.
 |
Is it a Maccsteam boiler? |

A warm welcome from Richard and Andrew in the US Virgin Islands.
Love the S50. Clever detail on the mounting of the MacSteam Boiler. 
Very nice restoration. Look forward to seeing the final result on the TE1.

now that's beautiful! I can see you have your own style of mounting engines and boilers - I like that, but it's crying for a boat |
