This is so cool. I wanted to build one in metal shop when I was a kid, and the teacher thought I was nuts. They called me "steam engine" for the rest of the semester. In hindsight, the teacher didn't know squat!

@aarojohannes All steam engines miniature or otherwise are fascinating, but this one has that great sound and low revving, doesn't matter if it's run by steam or air, it's the sound and low revving that makes it more interesting than most miniatures, very well done.

@Mr572u you should have made the parts on the machines in class secretly while working on your other projects and then assembled it at home, and then after that you should have brought it to school and rubbed it in your teacher's face :P

The engine is simple to make but the piston is a pain in the ass for me!
Yes, compressed air indeed. I do not plan steam boiler; I should like to keep my house livable.

Yes, it is, but it is the only way to keep it running.
