	Hello Guest, Advise what size of steam engine you intend. Is the Steam engine to be stationary or mobile. If mobile, advise range between refuelling. Advise the fuel you intend to use.

	Where do you come up with all the cool graphics? __________________ Eventually, one needs to realize that it is far less important to be the smartest person in the room than it is to sit next to that person and make friends.

	Hello Ried Read about how to put graphics into your Posts here: http://cr4.globalspec.com/thread/15743/How-to-insert-Graphics-into-your-Post-to-make-it-more-readable-or-interesting Graphics may be "borrowed or liberated" from almost everywhere, and I have an ever-increasing selection in my PC. "Google Graphics" is a good source, rename and re-size to suit yourself, so you can locate the appropriate graphic easily in your PC. I often search "Google Graphics" for a picture, and sometimes see the same picture showing on several different web-pages. Read the Topic above, and "have a go". Looking forward to seeing some of your fine graphical exploits. Kind Regards.... __________________ "The number of inventions increases faster than the need for them at the time" - SparkY

	If a reciprocating unit is your goal, research "Stumpf Uniflow" As to materials, look at ceramics for their reduced conductivity. Turbines (multi stage, to vacuum) will offer the best effeciency, though. __________________ If you always do what you've always done, You'll always get what you've always had!
