This is a vintage, Weeden 903horizontal steam engine, Refurbished and ready to run. It is in very good operationalcondition. I test fired it and it ran great. The shop made safety valve work works fine.The original chord is in good condition. I made a new brass filler plug and abrass smoke stack for it. I added a new in line on/off switch too. I feel it isa good safety item and they do not come with one. It could use a good cleaning. I threw in a new 8 ounce/250ml inc...remented Fillbottle and a bottle of steam cylinder oil. It is mounted on a hand crafted Spruceplague. I mounted it with stainlesssteel screws. I used existing holes so no holes were drilled. Please view all the pictures. What you see iswhat you get. Thanks for viewing theengine and good luck bidding. It was made in United Sates between 1930 and 1942.Shipping; I ship the first work day after you buy the item.In order to expedite your order I go to the post office as soon as it opens thefollowing day. This is 9:00 am EST at the PO I use. So, for both of us, pleasemake payment at the time of the order. I take great care in packing my machinesso they will not get damaged in shipping. Since they are pre-packed, I cannotcombine engines. I do my best to save you shipping cost by using the smallestpossible box and light packing material. Note; Sometimes Spruce will get a warp to it as it dries. Idry my lumber in a rack for several months, but this is not always enough. Whenit changes climates from the high humidity of Florida to an area that is proneto have low humidity it can exacerbate this condition. I always position myengine or accessory on the top of the crown, so it should stay level on theintended surface. This seldom happens, but I wanted you to know it is a possibility.I usually start the bidding belowwhat I have in it. Sometimes I do well sometimes not, but I am doing somethingI love. Enjoy your stream engine, RicDickens DimensionsMachine 7.5” L X 7” W X 6” HPlaque 8.75” L X 9.25” W X 3/4” HShipping Box 12”L X10” W X 8” HWeight; 4 lbs 7 ozs Vintage Weeden 903 horizontal live steam engine (A)
