I would agree with that since during an outside running session on dry fuel,
with just the ocillating engine running unloaded from the boiler the
pressure would not go past 25psi. I am thinking about making a meths burner
for mine or switching it to a gas burner which I can buy at Coles. I tend

David,
My only comment would be that I doubt if a dry tablet fueled boiler will
generate enough steam to keep up with the Graham engine.
Cheers

I have built the Vertical boiler, their occilating engine, and force pump.
All satisfying projects. The boiler was a fun project and a good first time
boiler. The boiler comes with soft solder plumbing type silver solder,
which is OK since the endplates are rivited and the fire tubes are swaged.
I am thinking of trying to build a semi-scale 7/8s model of a small
standard-gauge vertical boiler 0-4-0 using the GAGE twin for power. PM
Research has a boiler kit (BLR 1) that requires silver soldering and uses
dry fuel tablets. It scales out pretty well (although too tall) for what I
need. H
