Description: 25 Years of Steam Collection - TOTAL LIQUIDATION (I am 74 years old)As of April 2024, I still have over 1,600 items to list... Keep looking :-)Weeden Empire Mamod Wilesco Stuart Jensen Krick Heller Regner PM Research Carette CK Doll Fleishmann IND-X Aster Welch Maxwell Cheddar and more... THIS PARTICULAR ITEM For your consideration is a Weeden 14 Live Steam engine made in the USA in the 1930s. The Number 14, manufactured from the late 1800's up to 1940, was Weeden's most popular engine. It has a six legged table style cast iron frame, a design shared with two other similar electrically heated models, the No.647 and No.648. The No.14's distinctive boiler, with the four rows of rivets, is heated with a rectangular shaped three wick burner. The engine may be reversed simply by stopping it and flipping the flywheel in the other direction.I recommend for this engine to be used either as a static display or to operate it only with air pressure. This is a completely restored engine that really looks good but I would not recommend firing it.Some parts are aftermarket ; it is not all original.It is complete though with a well made burner (for decoration purpose only). Should you decide to fire it up, which I advise against, do it at your own risks. Condition :This antique engine has been fully restored but not all the parts are original. It has been air tested (video). This is not a good candidate to steam : either static display or air operated. It is very nice and runs well on air. It is cosmetically a C7 but mechanically a C5. VERY IMPORTANT : I am offering four options for shipping. USPS Priority is the default but you might prefer ground for a lower cost. Click on "See Details" next to the cost of shipping and the options should pop-up, including local pick up. Keep in mind that I do not control the cost of shipping. I enter the weight and size of the box and eBay calculates it. I do pack well and ship very fast. LESS IMPORTANT : Items are packed and ready for shipping when I make the listing. Combined shipping cannot be done if one item is larger than 8 x 8 x 8 packed. If it is possible, smaller items can be combined upon request prior to the payment. Guarantee : Item is guaranteed to be as described. I am a very honest seller hoping to deal with honest buyers. If I know something is wrong, I will disclose it but I certainly can make an honest mistake and will do my very best to correct it. Warning : Many of these older collectibles are not in compliance with today's safety standards. It is the responsibility of the buyer to determine whether or not they are still suitable for their intended purpose. Adult supervision is indispensable with any steam engine. Packaging :Items are packed carefully and should remain undamaged through a standard level of care during handling.
