W o w

Lot of thought and time went into that!
Nice job

What axle is under it?
How long does it take to heat up before it can power along?

Is that what Steampunk is?

Is it normal to have every rotating part way of center?

That is way awesome. I've actually started building my first steam engine a couple months ago. I'm building a scale steam donkey that was used for yarding logs back in the day. Thought it would be cool to build something like this. When I get farther along with my build I will post a build thread.

An older post but bringing it to the top just for the sheer cool factor.
Looking forward to a new build video from him.
Heard he was working on a 8x8 steam crawler/rover.
