Small 3-cylinder Steam Engine for Model Boat (Reversing)

[Simon Davies 3Participant @simondavies3]

I have for sale a delightful 3 cylinder engine with an integral reversing control and throttle, fully working (well, I tested it on air anyway!)

All brass construction apart from the base plate which is in aluminium with a casual attempt at machine turning on it as decoration.
The throttle body also incorporates a lubricator.
The baseplate engine mount incorporates a roughly 10° angle but the mount and the base itself could be dismantled if required.
The output shaft is about 4mm with a flat machined into it.

All in all, a rather nice piece of model engineering, very suitable as a stationary or boat based engine.

I acquired it recently but I have no use for it and I need to finance some other engineering purchases.

I am based in France so I am assuming post only – although if you want to collect in person, that's fine with me!

I have a number of other photos available if anyone wants some more details.
The unit is about 100mm long, 170mm overall width including the oiler (or about 110mm wide across the cylinders and about 110mm high
