Horizontal Boiler

[cfellows]

I believe I've acquired most of the raw materials needed for the horizontal boiler that will power my Moteur Oscillant steam engine. It will be 3.125" diameter by (probably) 7" long. I have 1 3/8" OD copper pipe for the flue, 3/8 OD x 1/4" ID copper pipe for the cross tubes, 1/8" copper rod for the stays, and 7/8" OD bronze rod for the fittings. Not shown, I also have some ez flow silver solder. Should be enough to get started.

I have reached the same point with my Toby 2 1/2" gauge boiler.

I'll be following along. Are you using an existing set of plans or freelancing the boiler?

Kind of working from Sandyc's horizontal boiler with some slight variations as dictated by available materials.
