Hey, now there's a potential series, "From Bin to Boat".

[KBIO]

  Until you die then it is "Boat to Bin!" ! 
Because the next generation does not have a clue of what is a steam model boat !
Cheers !

[Bernhard]

 YES...   AND ALLLL TO SLOW BOATS
.how long was the last launch here you build..

[KBIO]

Hello Bernhard !
It took me 2 month to build the launch! But I must admit that when I am after a project , I stick to it and spend 7/8 hours in my work shop!
Somedays, my wife likes it and some days , not ! The women are never happy !
Have a good evening !

[Bernhard]

   haaaaa i know how that is..not to let the mind relax. When something like that are in mind
 This size of the launch how long mm cm..
Cant remember it..

[KBIO]

Hello Bernhard !
The launch is 120 cm long by 29 cm wide and weights 8 kg.
The gas regulator is in place and the test is OK . The burner passes on pilot light @ 3 b (45 psi) .
Green tagged for next sailing !

And make the red under boiler black. Hope it is ok to sai this

[KBIO]

I think that it is a good idea. Let's do it ! 

[KBIO]

Good evening !
How do you like it ?
I didn't have  the same color of the engine but it seems to fit good.
I shall make walkways in the bottom later on. This will hide the shining protection of the floor.

[Bernhard]
