Hi All

my son has dug out my old Mamod steam engines and given them a clean up and got them going, which has re-sparked my interest in them.

When I was young I always wanted to have a crack at a home build, but never had the resources to do it, but as my son is also interested, maybe we'll do one together.

I don't know much about steam engines, but it looks like this is the place to find out more.

cheers
