Cabin Fever 2009
Al Goldberg Photos
Al sent these photos to me and I am posting them on 27 February 2009. Thank you Al! Al divided his photos into several sections so I will post them in the same manner.
General Views
I am pretty sure that this steam launch is (was) Ron Gingers. Ron made the
difficult decision to sell the boat after realizing that he was not using
it much and it deserved an owner who would have it out on the water more
frequently.
NEMES Table
Alan Bugbee's beautiful wood turnings
Russ Steeves marvelous brass cannon which will fire shotgun shells without
pellets. It sports a British imperial plaque added by him. The plaque was
originally a black and white photo, converted to metal by a process similar to
that used to photo etch printed circuit elements
Special Interest
Pratt and Whitney 18 cylinder radial engine model. On sale - scaled plans from the original engine, and scaled tooling jigs from the original
4-cylinder gasoline engine, 6.2 hp from 30cc at 23000rpm
very odd engines - the current owner doesn't know how the large angled scroll was made
