These boilers are heated using liquid petroleum gas (LPG) stored in small refillable or disposable tanks. With over 285 color photographs and diagrams, the book covers the necessary tools and equipment, as well as important safety considerations. It guides readers through the process of working with various materials to create the required parts, offering step-by-step instructions on the technique of silver solder. The book also includes a comprehensive testing regime, a review of different sizes and shapes of gas burners, and instructions for connecting them. Additionally, it offers guidance on building replacements for popular boilers such as the Verto boiler, a vertical boat boiler, a portable-engine boiler, and a Cornish boiler with Galloway tubes.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFurthermore, the book provides valuable insights into the efficient operation and essential maintenance of steam boilers, along with safety calculations and a list of useful contacts. Whether you are a professional boiler engineer or a hobbyist looking to expand your knowledge in this field, this book is an invaluable resource for anyone interested in constructing and operating steam boilers.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e                            \u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 752g                            \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 222 x 268 x 16 (mm)                            \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9781785008764                                                      \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Alex Weiss,Kevin Walton","offers":[{"title":"Hardback","offer_id":44095870435578,"sku":"9781785008764","price":13.8,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/4ce782a067f9a6e92d07e6867294473e.jpg?v=1629688002","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/making-small-gas-fired-boilers-for-steam-models","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
