  • Yes, I will share the circuits, and schematics when I am satisfied.

    Hi, nice work. I have to say it, are you satisfied yet? I'm looking at a coffee machine pump for the feed water, just need to control it.

    Love your videos.

  • @nrg4all

    Yes, I am satisfied, it works very well. Sorry to not follow up. Personal message me and I will get you the diagram or I can sell you a circuit already made. 12 vdc, probe wire sensing water level, and two control wires for pump or solenoid.

  • You don't need wood pellets. Wood chips, saw dust, leaves, anything that burns.

  • GREAT JOB!

    Did I miss something in you other vids I thought u using a coil of copper as a boiler how does the spark plug tie into that. also could you give us parts list and schematic of your control system in the next eppisode

    either way thank you.

  • Thanks for the compliments.

    Yes, there is a coil of copper tubing about 175 feet long. The spark plug is used as a means to complete a low voltage circuit when water is present in the tubing circuit just before it enters the evaporator section.

    Yes, I will share the circuits, and schematics when I am satisfied. I have attempted to keep things as off the shelf and simple as possible.

see all

  • What are these used for?

  • Great! A BBQ for the sauna :-)

  • WHO KNOWS:How to make a simple generator fog/smoke?1.A bucket or pot- The combustion chamber. 2.A small fan-pumping air.3. Metal tube with water in a bucket. And what to do to smoke was flying to the ground?I would like to make this generator create smoke as smoke grenade. Maybe someone knows any links to pages? Thanks in advance.

  • Nice boiler! Don

  • Hi: Great work...Roughly how much PPM of steam does this generate?

  • 3 psi is fine. You will need a very large cylinder and run as a vacuum engine. The earliest steam engines used this method. Just a little steam at very low pressure was admitted and as it collapsed in the cooler cylinder the normal 14.7 psi air pressure acted on the cylinder. 14.7 psi x 78.5 sqin = 1154 Lbs on the shaft. Its a slow but powerful engine. Gear it to a faster turning output.

  • nice work im trying to build something like that but i only need 3 psi and run it on propane and it needs to run for 24 hours constant any advice?

  • what is the point of it?

  • I would also like to purchase a circuit plan if you have it.

  • Impressive system!
