Weeden Steam Engine Under Steam Power
3 years ago

This is my roughly 100 year old Weeden Steam Engine. I've previously run it on compressed air but decided Id see how well it would work under steam pressure. I purchased this with the sight glass broken so I had to solder brass caps over the sight glass nuts or retainers in order to be able to build pressure in the boiler. For the most part that worked however one of the caps did not seal well which has since been fixed by a rubber washer under the cap. Also made a new wooden handle for the whistle which was broken when I purchased the model. It came with an alcohol burner I'm not familiar with so decided to run it on Sterno Gel Fuel which seemed to work well. This engine runs very smooth and quiet considering its age.
