Notes: | Single cylinder single acting oscillating cylinder. Overall height 78mm. Vertical flue-tube boiler, fired with a single wick meths burner. Based on Tubal Cains design published in Building Simple Model Steam Engines. I dont know if Tubal Cain had any connection with Philcraft. Maybe he and Phil Gravet (the proprietor of Philcraft) were one and the same. Tubal Cain was almost certainly a nom de plume. |
