This practical, instructional book describes the construction of a
model of the Lampitt portable steam engine, which dates back to
1862, and which provided rotative power to drive threshing
machines, circular saws, feed mills and other farm machinery. The
construction of every component is described in precise detail and
the text is supported by many helpful step-by-step photographs. In
addition, useful advice is provided about obtaining materials and
about the tools that are required to equip a model-engineering
workshop. Accordingly, the information provided in this fascinating
book will enable the reader to construct not only the Lampitt
engine but also many other engineering models in the future. When
the reader has finished building 'the Lampitt' he will, in effect,
have completed an engineering apprenticeship, and will have a model
engine of which he can be proud and which fully reveals the skills
that he has learned.
