* Santa came early and left a package of old boat publications on my porch ! "Thanks Again" to a very generous long time member on this site! In appreciation I will scan and post some of the interesting info as I come across it. Will be away for 6-7 days, but I thought this would be a good a start! Chas Strelinger this company was claimed to be the largest machine tool company in the country right after the turn of the century ! This article is 1904, the engine is one I have not seen before !

Great stuff! Looks like that would be a good use for unwanted drag saw engines... Does anyone have photos of this type of clutch arrangement, and did any of these packages allow for turning the paddle wheels in opposite directions simultaneously? |
