Steam engines were used as the prime mover in pumping stations, locomotives, steam ships, traction engines, steam lorries and other road vehicles.

They were essential to the Industrial Revolution and saw widespread commercial use driving machinery in factories and mills, although most have since been superseded by internal combustion engines and electric motors.

There are those that still admire those beautiful machines from our history. These individuals enjoy building and operating models of steam engines and machines in their spare time.

This is a great collection of 8 PDF files on one CD. It covers all types of steam models, sure to please the model builder.

A STEAM POWERED CRANE - SCALE MODELERS DREAM PLANS

The machine illustrated in this document was, around 1880, constructed for Port Alfred Harbor, one of several harbors made by Sir J. Coode in South Africa. The crane was tested under steam with a load of 19 tons with the most satisfactory results; the whole machine appeared to be very rigid, an end often very difficult to obtain with portable wrought-iron structures and live loads.

The crane showed itself to be very handy and quick in working, the speeds with 19 tons load, as actually timed at the trial, are: lifting 16 ft. per minute, racking motion 46 ft. per minute, slewing through a complete circle 90 ft. diameter, four minutes, equivalent to a speed at load of 60 ft. per minute.

The most striking features of the crane are, the great range of all the motions, the large radius, and the method of providing for the latter by a horizontal jib suspended from a king-post. Imagine this awesome steam powered crane as a scale model.... if you've got the time and skill required to convert the plans to a scale, this is your plan!

If not, it'd still make a super addition to a collection of books... or a huge project to undertake, should you decide to build it full-size.

Includes large scale, printable drawings. When printed and assembled, these are over 30" wide! Perfect to work from, or for display. Get a real close-up view and all the details in a clear, large-scale format.

BUILD A MODEL HOT-AIR ENGINE GREAT PLANS & INSTRUCTIONS

The pretty little toy about to be described is interesting as a practical application to power-producing purposes of the force exerted by expanding air.

It is easy to make, and, for mere demonstration purposes, has an advantage over a steam-engine of the same size in that it can be set working in less than a minute, and will continue to act as long as a small spirit flame is kept burning beneath it; it cannot explode; and its construction is a simpler matter than the building of a steam-engine.

An ideal science class project, scouting troop project and of course, it's perfect for the big, grown-up kids who like to tinker with such things.

STEAM POWERED MODEL HYDROPLANE NAUTICAL MODELERS PLANS

The model described in this plan is the result of an industrious designer in the early 1900's. His aim was to bring the model boat speed record to America from England.

He accomplished this, with a very cool Hydroplane Model. The old English record was 26.7 MPH and this model made a considerable showing in excess of 30 MPH. A FAST model for the time!

The hull of this record-breaking hydroplane is 39 inches and the beam is over 7 inches. This is a large model and will be a true thrill to run!

It operates on a flash boiler and twin-cylinder high speed steam engine. The hull took many attempts to perfect, and it appears that it was. So cool, you just have to build one for yourself and share!

STEAM POWER MODEL LOCOMOTIVE - VINTAGE RAILROAD PLANS

In the early 1900's steam locomotives streaked across the country and models were built by all sorts of people in their home workshops, garages and shops. This was an age of invention and experimentation.

The plans contained in this document come from this era of mechanical growth. It details the construction of an Model Steam Locomotive modeled after the Delaware, Lackawanna & Western, Pacific type locomotive.

The Full-Size Train Was Built By The Lackawanna Railroad In June 1913. The historical model railroad principles and practices described in this model plan will make for interesting and interactive lessons.

It's a treasure for the model engineer and it'll amuse the kids of all ages that're lucky enough to see it.

A SUSPENSION STYLE PNEUMATIC HAMMER MODELERS PLANS

Here is a very nice document originating from the late 1880's. It explains in detail, the construction of a suspended pneumatic hammer.

This hammer was intended to be used for planishing pipes and plates. The original plan detailed a machine capable of delivering 500 blows per minute.

Quite a powerful machine for the time.

Imagine this awesome machine as a scale model.... if you've got the time and skill required to convert the plans to a scale, this is your plan! If not, it'd still make a super addition to a collection of books... or a huge project to undertake, should you decide to build it full-size.

OSCILLATING HYDRAULIC MOTOR ILLUS. CONSTRUCTION DETAILS

This is a cool document containing the construction details of an oscillating hydraulic motor. It'd make a fun science project and a tinkerers project for sure. The modeler will no doubt find use in this little power house.

Read a quote from the document:

"This little motor does not show any new principle. It uses the old oscillating cylinder, but it embraces in its construction ingenious details which render its application very simple and very easy. This little motor will be especially useful for sewing machines and other small machinery requiring similar power."

Includes large scale, printable drawings. Perfect to work from, or for display. Get a real close-up view and all the details in a clear, large-scale format.

BUILD AN 80 TON STEAM HAMMER SCALE MODELERS DREAM PLANS

The steam powered hammer forging mill described in this document is one of those creations which is destined to remain for a long time. The mill was constructed as a portion of the vast works that the Compagnie des Forges et Aciéries de la Marine owned at Saint Chamond, and which embrace likewise a powerful steel works that furnishes, especially, large ingots exceeding 100 tons in weight.

The mill consists, altogether, of three hammers, located in the same room, and being of unequal powers in order to respond to different requirements. The largest of these hammers is of 80 tons weight, and the other two weigh respectively 35 and 28 tons. Each of them has a corresponding furnace for heating by gas, as well as cranes for maneuvering the ingots and the different engines.

Imagine this awesome steam powered hammer as a scale model.... if you've got the time and skill required to convert the plans to a scale, this is your plan! If not, it'd still make a super addition to a collection of books... or a huge project to undertake, should you decide to build it full-size.

Includes large scale, printable drawings. When printed and assembled, these are over 30" wide! Perfect to work from, or for display. Get a real close-up view and all the details in a clear, large-scale format.
