Jensen 10 Horseshoe Magnet Steam Engine Generator

[JBofBrisbane]

So where do you buy model steam engines that run on mains power instead of alcohol or tablet fuel?

If you want to get the plans for building a Magnetic Generator

Just search Google for "top magnetic generator" and click the first result

I found it to be a great resource

I did not see the horseshoes, call the black smith.

That's not a mamod it's a jensen

what are you gonna use to boil the water? coal, wood, back to square one.

Remember, this is just a demonstration of the principals of heat > boiling water > steam production > generation of electricity. The boiler is heated in this case with 110 V AC electric, so obviously NOT a practical way to light a 3 volt bulb...but remember, just demonstrating a principal in miniature. The boiler "could" be heated with wood, coal, alcohol or other fuel if converted...but that is not the point.

@IndianaRog what about a big lense to heat the water..can't remember what they are called..but you can aim alot of sunlight into a very small area and get almost instant steam..run this all day..and charge batteries for night time...it's feasable.

@brofun its not feasible at all.

@IndianaRog Concentrated Solar steam with Molten Salt storage

i had one of those from my grandpa. those are hecka old

That's exactly how an electric power plant works, steam drives the turbines that produces the electricity we need and use!

All we have to do is boil water.

if only you can make a device to store all the energy generated and then use it. must take a LONG time to generate though. :)

It's called a capacitor, or a battery....
