The Steam Engine - AstroMedia
A steam engine as a cardboard kit, powered by really boiling steam. This model is not only splendid to look at, it also works splendidly.
The boiler made of corrosion-resistant aluminium has a magnetic pressure relief valve, the fire from 5 tea lights is shielded by a galvanised wire grid and the steam is conducted through a closed hose and foil system and released into the open air via a chimney.
The power development remains modest, but so does the safety-relevant boiler pressure.
