Hi Gary et al.
I would differ n the point that a Meths (WICK) fire is a constant fire -
It is definately not so. The meths fire does have a maximum firing rate
(Heat Output), when the wicks are delivering the maximum flow rate of
spirit to the area where it is vapourised
Harry,
Thanks for the feedback (and Thanks from everyone else as well). This, of
course leads another question.
snipCould the bottom water glass bush in the backhead also service the
pressure gauge?
It could but you don't want it to. The gauge is best taken off a
high (dry) bush, or
Ken asked Harry:-

Hi Dan,
Many thanks for your steamup event and hospitality of yourself and
Rusty last Saturday.
We had a great time, especially running on the new modified top loop. I
will try to do more laps next time, so you can witness the event.
I am sure everyone had some good running time and
this reminds me ...
here are some pix i made on saturday at dr. dan liebowitz' in woodside, calif.

though i concentrated on jeff williams' k-27, there were at least a
dozen steamers there and quite a few locos.

I think this is a more atheistic solution
More advice: turn off the spell checker in your e-mail program (or
consult your dictionary more :-).

Vance,
I take it you don't think this is a religious problem?

Hmmm, again from the prototype world, the pressure gauge is generally taken
off a high spot in the boiler. My experience has been off the high side of
the barrel with a pig tail and shut off valve. This would measure the
actual STEAM pressure of the boiler.
In taking my boiler license tests
The pig tail I thought was to
protect the gauge from the heat of the steam so that pressure causes
the
little tube (what is the name of that damn tube) to move and not heat
expansion.

It is the Bourdon tube.

My understanding is that the stinken tube is made from brass sheet and the
seam is soft soldered and needs to be kept coolish, hence the pigtail to
keep the gauge isolated from the heat.
Since the pressure gauge is pretty important it's placed close to the
engineer's eyeballs, so the pigtail needs
I checked today with our printers distributers.
G1MRA NLJ #196 went down the chute on 15 January.
So, transpondies, for those of you on surface delivery, it may be a few days
yet

i think he was going for aesthetic (relating to the beauty of
something, usually a work of art), but he missed and the

Impressive macro work with that new camera Dave! Thanks for sharing.
