Steam engines...

It all started one day when I, all of a sudden, decided to model an engine. Having no plans I started browsing internet and came across a steam engine designed by Gerry Dykstra (the beam engine at the bottom).

To my suprise (honest!) I discovered that there are many types of steam engines ranging from very simple to quite complex ones and some of them are just beautiful :-) So, I bought a couple of books with drawings and spent some time looking in internet for free plans (there is a lot of them).

So, here there they are - steam engines...
