Regner Parts

I have an older two cylinder vertical steam engine made by Regnor, does anyone have any knowledge where I can obtain replacement parts for it? It appears to have been a one cylinder kit, that had the ability to be expanded to a two cylinder, as well as adding reverse gear. I am need of one rever

Re: Regner RC Pump

Hi. I think it is continuously rotative rather than + & - 45 deg like a servo. It may be an on off thing ie on and it runs, off it stops, or a very simple modification of the servo electronics by the maker - would make it variable speed ie 0 to max - continuously. The nice thing about elect

doorknobs and cabbage stacks

Sounds like the title of a Disney movie, doesn't it? Does anyone remember who made the cabbage stack from a brass doorknob? I remember seeing it at Diamondhead, and I had thought it was Carl Malone's work, but I don't find a photo of it on his web page so now I'm doubting my memory (always a

Dan, "Project" and "Dee" are publcations of the G1MRA in England. "Project" is a single cylinder 0-6-0 and "Dee" is a two cylinder 4-4-0. Both engines follow British practice and both are inside cylinder engines. The books can be ordered directly from that organization (http://www.gaugeone

Regner RC Pump
