  • The Roadster just had a small weep on its gauge glass and worked OK. Repairing the weep took a lot longer than it should have and went a bit OTT!

    You should work for Mamod and get rid of their crappy pop rivets and nylon bush bearings.Then their models would be better value.
    What a great job you did on the Roadster, thank you for showing, enjoyed watching that.

    If you wanted to sell a few pre made versions id consider buying one! Great ideas to apply though, I have been meaning to do something similar to one of my Mamod traction engines, but lack the high pressure/heat copper braising skill, let alone on on such small scale

    Hello! Wonderful modification so cleanly done. I was hoping you could tell me where you purchased the valve for the gas tank? I have been looking high and low and can not find a nice small flow valve like the one you used. THANKS!!!

      Hi Tyler, Alas I only made two of these engines over four years ago and have gone on to do other things. I don't think a standard Mamod boiler and burner would make enough steam to power one of these engines. Regards Tony.
