Pearl Twin Engine

http://mindeern-engine.blogspot.com/2006/04/spring-2005-to-present-day-description.html

April 30, 2006. Spring 2005 to the Present Day. Description of the Pearl Engine. I had first purchased the bronze castings for the single cylinder engine, as its indicated power seemed to be sufficient for the hull I intended to use. Later on I ordered the missing parts for building the twin which consists mainly of two single engines mounted on a larger bed plate. All-bronze single cylinder engine. Bronze / cast iron twin cylinder engine. For many years I have been using two table top, small but precise...

http://mindeern-boiler.blogspot.com/2006/04/first-steps-this-part-of-project-has.html

April 30, 2006. This part of the project has profited most from the information available in the Web, as well as from the suggestions of some DDV (German Steam Boat Association) members. Information from Web however showed that the brazing of copper heating coils - a wide-spread technology - is not a safe solution for certain boiler types, where the water level can fall below the upper coil connections. Thus: no copper, but steel parts. It was the reading of Rainer Radow. One of my initial sketches.

In this regard, I cannot count on the experience of other Pearl users....

http://mindeern-english.blogspot.com/2006_04_01_archive.html

April 30, 2006. The Beginning of the Story. Actually, I have to a certain extent a "steam record". My father was responsible in Spain for the maintenance and repair of the locomotive park (narrow gauge and full size switching locomotives) of the factory where he was employed.

At the same time I became involved ...
