Steam engine

That's pretty neat.  You need to make a daytime video.

Thanks! I do have a daytime video but I need to edit it before I post it anywhere since I accidently got the cars licence plate in the frame through the whole video and I don't want that anywhere on the internet.

Ok I could not figure out how to edit out the licence plate so I made another video and although it shows the engine running I had to cut the test short because the bottom of the cylinder blew off. Looks like the part is just friction fit in there so I should be able to fix it with some solder or something like that but for now it is broken. I think I should have installed a valve on the steam pipe so that I could have controlled the speed. Here is the video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=45vkZp4pW5k

Just curious, as I've always wondered: Why do people block out their license plate numbers? I mean, we drive all over the place with them visible to everybody. I don't know what you can do with a plate number, but they are visible 24/7 on our cars.
