Community Briefly July 2
This will be the largest gathering of antique fire apparatus in Nevada, with competition governed by the California Firemen's Muster Association that was formed in 1974 to standardize competition and safety rules. The muster competition is designed to give spectators a view of what it was like to respond to and fight fires “way back when.” The two-day competition is open to the public at no charge. As part of the Staples for Students campaign, the stars of “Pretty Little Liars” — Lucy Hale, Troian Bellisario, Ashley Benson and Shay Mitchell — are encouraging Carson City teens to make a difference this summer by collecting school supplies and dropping them off at their nearest Staples store from July 3 through Sept. 17.Steam Engine Drawings Public - News
The fire companies of Virginia City and Gold Hill held contests in the early 1860s through the 1870s, testing their hand-pumped and steam powered fire engines to see who had the best, fastest or most efficient equipment and firefighters.

Areas of the vessel they saw included a dining room, salon (living room of a boat), the steam engine, bedrooms, bathrooms and they could also go on top of the vessel to see the steering wheel. "I came out to see the restoration, and it's magnificent,"

Yes, we know Porter is out of the game, but that density, design and layout was more accepted by the public than anything we've seen since. More green space and the return of the steam locomotive to the area will also improve tourism.
Steam Engine Technical Drawings | Factor E Farm Blog
I completed the first pass on the Steam Engine technical drawings a bit over a week ago. These are 2D drawings that specify each of the parts that make up the engine.
This is a fairly major milestone in the steam engine project, since it enables CAD drawings to be created that match the dimensions in these drawings. Work still needs to be done, however. There are likely to be errors in these drawings that need to be weeded out. Bolt holes need to align, for example. Nested parts need to fit. Etc.
I’ve already started a review of the drawings, but I’m also open to other people looking at them for potential problems. I’m also looking for ways to further simplify the engine for fabrication and assembly. Efficiency and power suggestions are also welcome, but radical changes to the design will be deferred to future versions.
You can see a list of all the steam engine illustrations at Steam Engine Images . Most of these can be accessed from the build instructions .
There has been some discussion of building the first prototype of the steam engine at Factor e Farm in July or August, but if you would like to try your hand building one, contact me so we can work together. We like to capture early prototype development efforts in photos and videos.
