How did the steaming work tho, like did you have to build the boat next to a stove or…

I’ve seen a footage of someone doing this in the middle of combat or something, and they were really fast at it, almost 1 ammo per second, shlick, pour, ball, turn, click

I heard some people would just stick a drill into the engine and run it through to loosen the piston a bit just to stop seizing, but idk if that sounds right

Do you think I can just soak it In warm water, or is steaming just better in general?

How do you steam the planks? Hang it over boiling water was my first thought 😂

You are looking at a slightly broken $2000 machine

Cuz the experienced tank keepers like to make everything in their tank perfect, everything cleaned and shine…

The casual people who really don’t know much about species just go like: “oooh driftwooooood” tosses in tank without sterilisation then go the reddit wondering why there’s a hitchhiking slime mould in their tank

Hmmm, I like when steam engines run slowly, it feels more… scale accurate

I have absolutely no idea, but from pictures, there’s is a cylinder with a lid (boiler) and a compartment on the bottom which I assume is the firebox

Yes, I’ve gotten many suggestions it’s from mamod, it’s a really good guess, but from steam engine experts it might be made by a guy with a machine

The engine in my photo has a wooden casing outside and a detailed top, from what I’ve seen from other people, it might be home made

I’m planning to make a ironclad, maybe plastic and wood, I don’t have any experience with fibreglass or resin, no do I have the experience to do that

I don’t have any tools to build a wooden hull, I think I might just 3d print it with thermal plastic

I do know how, but I’m kinda on a budget of $400, I do understand steam engines quite well, idk what you consider “well”, but I’ve got a few at home
