Proper job sir, what size hammer did you use ??

NOW next is the trail run of the steam unit to see if that small fan has enough blow power to push the steam right up the whole 14 odd inches of steam pipe will it or wont it ?

Chris,
Got agree with Ian, that is outstanding mate.

Ooooh I thought for a fleeting moment you had set Fire to the ship Chris , had to lie down in a dark room.

 

[Mini Me]

Wishful thinking JR! .......looks like you have quite a bit of velocity pushing steam up that funnel......are both fans operational or just the 40mm? Rick H.

 

[Bobby Conkers]

Magnificent!
