1" scale turbogenerator *** SOLD ***
I have a 1" scale turbogenerator of unknown manufacture, built of brass. It has not been opened for cleaning or lubricating, as it has merely been in storage. A test on air last week saw it generating +5volts A/C . Don't know why it was A/C but there's plenty I don't know. Pictures attached. I'...

Winterport Sand, Lumber, and Gravel Railroad
Joey Kelley videoed and edited this Youtube film for a group of youngsters on the island of St. Maartin. It begins with an introduction that may appear "gravelly", but Joey is a pretty good film maker. It's a run on my newly completed but in need of track leveling and all the goodies which...

Re: Soldering - GAH!
Thank you, everyone, for your advice and oversight. It's an awful great amount of information to take in. I've soldered copper pipes in our home system, but with live steam it was just about over my head. I was using silver content plumber's solder at first, and finally had luck with 60/40 stain gla...

Soldering - GAH!
I spent hours trying to solder copper to brass and brass to brass this past weekend. I finally got results using a propane torch and a liquid flux, and resorting to my wife's stained glass solder.
