"The Beverly" mill plant

During the mid 90’s I produced a series of Mill Plants and one in particular that I liked the most was the plant illustrated above. I am now making a 2010 version of this model, but this year I will be making only five models with numbers 5,6,8,9 and 10 and will be available for delivery in December. 

The plant will consist of a horizontal Mill Engine driving a Dynamo which will supply electricity to the street lamp. A shaft driven water pump will deliver water to the vertical boiler which is fired by butane gas that provides steam to drive the Mill Engine. A water tank of ample size will supply the boiler which will give about 45 minutes steam time at approximately 400 rpm. The exhaust steam will pass to a steam oil separator; the oil in the steam dropping down inside the separator and the steam then passing out and up the exhaust pipe attached to the chimney.

The boiler is made from copper tube silver soldered and then pressure tested to 150 psi. The boiler is heated via a ceramic burner situated beneath the boiler giving sufficient heat to generate steam pressure up to 80 psi. There are ample steam valves around the plant for controlling the passage of water, steam and exhaust steam each being connect by polished copper piping adding to the attraction of this fine model.
A Bell type working whistle is fitted to the chimney with a pull down chain to activate it.

The plant is mounted on a 14 inch square brass polished chequer baseplate bolted to a polished hardwood base with blue baize beneath.

The plant can be personalised or if it’s required for a retirement present by fitting a special engraved brass plaque made to special order.
