Hi, just a video of a rotary steam engine. It looks like a easy
build and it also looks like it uses a lot of steam. ??? ??? ???

Hi, I started to purchase parts for the boiler, about a dozen
more trips to the hardware store and I should have everything I
need. :-\

Hi, I think I have all the parts to start fabrication. Total
cost about 300.00US. 70 feet total 3/7 ths OD copper, 10 feet
for the preheater, 10 feet for the economizer, and 50 feet for
main heating coil. After I get the coils fabricated then I can
construct a frame to hold it all together.

Hi, I found a link to help determine the max pressure for the
copper tubing. For the tubing I am using the max pressure is
about 550 to 600 psi. The safety relieve valve I am using is max
110 psi.

too bad you can't prove the design a little cheaper.

Hi, no soldering and it a modular construction. All the little
parts add up.
Gasoline is about $4.00/gallon, if I can it working it should
pay for it self in a short period of time.

wouldnt it work better if the heat went up the outside as well
as the inside of the coils.? Also if the coil turns were
seperated some distance.?
