The Basics of Steam Engineering by Skip Goebel $20.00When you are able to find a book on steam engineering, it is usually a book only a mechanical engineer can understand. Skip Goebel's book is the book for beginners. Chapters include steam essentials, steam engines (turbine and piston), how a D-valve system works (it has no springs), the different types of steam boilers (the firetube boilers you see at steam shows have been obsolete for a hundred years), and more. Check out: The Basics of Steam Engineering - Table of Contents This manual is free with our steam engine. Deduct $20.00 from the price of our 1 or 3 horsepower steam engine if you buy the manual now and a steam engine later. Deduct $90.00 from the price of one of our steam engines if you buy the Special Steam Package now and a steam engine later. Steam Engineering Seminar Manual (Boiler Basics) by Jerred D. Ruble $20.00The seminar manual, very heavily illustrated, is the most thorough and east-to-understand manual on steam boilers we have ever seen. Every single piece and part of a direct flue boiler, return flue boiler, and upright boiler is illustrated and explained, including boiler construction. The second half of the manual contains illustrations and explanations of the workings of D-valve steam engines, governors, greasers (for lubrication), the clutch, and both used-to-new farm equipment. Information includes properties and power of steam, boiler construction, boiler testing, boiler safety devices, care and operation of steam boilers, care and operation of steam engines. More Ph.D. Steam Publications Available: Maintenance Manual (for firetube boilers) (5.385" x 8.5" format, 28 pages) $15.00 How to Build A Vertical Firetube Boiler (8.5' x 11" format, 20 pages) $30.00 How to Build A Locomotive/Traction Boiler (8.5" x 11" format, 38 pages) $30.00 Boiler Operators Training Course (8" x 10" format, 166 pages) $100.00 Read Skip Goebel's Article:Is Steam Power in Your Future?

Steam and Gas Engine Association Western Minnesota Steam Threshers Reunion Steam Engine Prints $30.00Blueprints of our 1 horsepower steam engine have been redrawn so those who want to build their own engine may do so. Details for our two cylinder 3 horsepower steam engine are included using the same components. Done in 11" x 17" format for easy handling. These prints will illustrate as nothing else can, why it takes so much time to produce our engine. You will also be able to see why there were only 2,000 steam engines in the entire United States by the year 1860. Even with modern CNC equipment, these are not simple units to build. A hobbyist may take months to build one. Power Plant Prints $20.00Build a 20 kw to 50 kw induction generator out of a used 3-phase motor, a car engine, and other parts from a junkyard, and a couple of machined adapters. Most of these units can be built for under $500.00. 
How To Build A Junkyard Still by Michael H. Brown $15.00100 proof alcohol is 50% water. 190 proof alcohol is only 5% water. If you want maximum efficiency and reliability in a spark-ignition engine running on ethyl alcohol, you need a fractionating column in order to keep most of the water out of your fuel. In Kentucky, this device is known as a "rock still." This book shows how to build a complete fractionating column/distillery out of a garbage can, a pipe full of rocks, the back of a toilet, and some plumbing pipe. This is the companion book to Brown's Alcohol Motor Fuel Cookbook. Check out: How To Build A Junkyard Still - Table of Contents
