The Hasbrouck #10 - 2HP Column Marine Steam Engine

The plans for the engine were presented to me by Mr. Ray F. Hasbrouck of No. 20, Brouck-Ferris Blvd., New Platz, NY 12561, in May 2005. The plans were drawn very carfully and the building instructions were fully descriptive.


Construction

The Steam Chest, D Valve, and the Steam Chest Cover were made as first step.
