steam engine
my grandpa recently bought me an unassembled steam engine for my birthday, but he thought it would be "fun" not to give me the instructions, so i am wondering if any of you know how to put one together. im thinking about finally using my flat bottom swamp buggy hull to put this in. i will post some pictures of the engine in a minute.

RE: steam engine
It's an oscillating steam engine. It looks like it is already assembled.
I cannot see from your pictures, but the oil part probably is for the crank.
All you need to do is connect steam or a constant air pressure to one of those lines as seen in you number 2 post an start the engine turning. If you want it to go in the other direction just change which line you feed the pressure into.
