Some impressive and very interesting projects there, Pitchy! I wonder if your steam engine could be scaled up to run a small car?

Pitchy,
Man you've been busy. I love steam. Went to a steam tractor and old engine show last Saturday where we saw a slew of steam tractors. Even some oil-pulls. They did a separator demonstration where they thrashed some wheat. My neighbor has his Grand dad's sawmill set and various steam tractors took turns pulling it. I think they sawed all week. There is a huge Corliss steam engine setup in a permanent building that also houses a complete machine shop that is run by a single steam engine with all the line shafts overhead. Quite a sight and very educational for the children as none of that stuff is hidden by a bunch of guards. You can see exactly how it all operates.

That will give me something to do tomorrow if the old ladies at NASCAR get boring .....

The Tulsa news people came out and visited our steam and gas show at Pawnee, Oklahoma. I got picked to talk about my steam traction engine.
