Stuart beam engine steam plant - stock code 12835

A particularly well built steam plant, comprising a Stuart spirit-fired boiler and beam engine with Watt governor and displacement lubricator. We like the little details on this one, including the fluted beam column - typical of full-size practice - and vintage Bassett-Lowke pressure gauge.

Attractively painted, with polished brightwork, the plant is mounted on a tiled wooden base with hand pump, water and oil separator tanks.

The boiler has had a hydraulic test with new certification issued; the engine runs over freely and runs on air.

Includes free UK shipping.
