A venerable example of a small boilered slip eccentric "Tich". Boiler is sound and the engine runs freely, wants a cosmetic overhaul.

Silver soldered copper boiler, 80psi working pressure, feed by axle and hand pump. Gunmetal cylinders with slide valves actuated by slip eccentric gear.

The first "Tich" LBSC designed, I think the prettiest - for me the later large boiler engine lost in style what it gained in capacity.
