Kenneth Wells Traction Engine Drawings

[tmuir]

Kennth gives permission in his book to copy the drawings so I've just scanned the drawings only (no photos or text on how to help you build it) and it is now available in the downloads section.

If you build one be sure to post photos of it.

No probs.

I thank you as well Tony :bow:, I've always wondered what these engines looked like. Although I have never actually seen one up close and personal and the fact that the books are commanding high $$$$, with the addition of the wheel and smokebox patterns and these drawings, perhaps I can fabricate one in my lifetime. :
