Hi Keith,
There are a lot of peeps on the list here more qualified than me to talk
about boilers but in my 30+ years of playing with boilers from 2 1/2/"
gauge up to the 12" to the foot stuff, I have never heard of a mishap yet.
My advice is, join a club and there will be plenty of help there, building
and running.
Dave.

Thank you all for your help with my spinning question, yes it is harder
than
I thought as you all suggested. On the subject of accidents, I am building
a
simplex, never driven one, never lit a fire in one. yes I am new to this
and
would be glad of a training program of sorts. I can understand people that
have been building / running locos for years been a little miffed at the
thought of having to take a test but is it that dangerous?? Do boilers
explode on
a regular basis? I have just had a telling off for suggesting using brass
for
my inner dome, if i did the world would end or de railments happen tipping
people off onto the floor. this is a topic close to you all by the amount
of
posts you are getting. Im alarmed do i need to join the dangerous sports
society. Oh just a quick one anybody know where i can get pickling solution
from
in the uk? dont think reeves do it anymore, must be far to dangerous
