Model Marine - New Engine from China
« on: December 29, 2012, 12:49:16 PM »
Hi PD's........

Most manufacturers tend to place the lubricator on the discharge side of the boiler to lubricate every component in line >>>>>>>>>>>>>>> which includes the steam regulator
 
Appears that this could be achieved by removing, the installing the lubricator PRIOR to the speed regulator by re-connecting via an additional M8x1P fittings female socket & an M8x1P nipple .............Derek

Hi PD's....the Australian importer http://modelmarine.net...is offering a 5"horizontal boiler for US$1285.00 when in fact it is the Mccsteam 5"boiler for 715.00 GBP = US$1156.00 ........their WEBSITE acknowledges these are Maccsteam products

In reality the price differential is OK, as it would be approx AUD$100.00 to air ship the boiler from UK to OZ......

No ...just checked a private consolidated air freight source UK to OZ .........

6kg and the parcel being 400x200x200=...............AUD$191.64............... Derek
