Thanks for the comments -- we were really pleased with it's first run. We did oil it well. We ewre not sure how to use the solid fuel tablets so broke on in half and just poked those inside the feul tray. It probably needed more than that. Cheers Jilly-Graham

That video was fantasic, G-J. You could tell the dogs were getting bit by
the steam bug. We'll have to create a special section for them on the forum.

For an engine not run in that went quiet well.

After I fitted the new cylinders to mine for the first couple of runs it would only run for about 30 or 40 seconds before stopping but now its ran init will go as long as there is fire and water.
