1940s Weeden 43 Electric Live Steam Engine - Air Tested 0943

Description: LIVING ESTATE SALE (Details at the end of description) For your consideration is a vintage Weeden 43 Electric Live Steam Engine made in the USA in the 1940s. From the Weeden site : "Weeden No. 43 was manufactured from the mid 1940's to early 1950's, base was 6 1/4" X 9 1/4" and it stands 7" high." It could be a great and easy restoration project or it can be used for the numerous original parts that are in good mechanical condition.It has been air tested (video) and the heating element warms up.It is mechanically sound and the cord is in good condition. PROS :Easy restoration project,Near complete and original, except for the pressure relief valve that is missing.Many great parts that are difficult to find. CONS :The pressure relief valve is missing,The wooden base needs complete refinishing,The boiler is loose on one side (Photo - Easy fix). It would not currently operate on steam but it certainly be easily restored to reach that goal. Please select the shipping system that suits you best. Condition : This vintage live steam engine is either an excellent candidate for an easy restoration of a great source for difficult to find parts. It has been air tested (video) and the heating element warms up. Except for the pressure relief valve, it is complete and all original. It is mechanically sound but the wooden base needs to be refinished. I would rate it a C5 for the excellent parts available. VERY IMPORTANT : I am offering four shipping options. You can check the cost by clicking next to shipping on "See Details" or make your choice at take-out. The default is usually UPS Ground as Expedited Shipping can be expensive and is not necessarily more reliable. Please keep in mind that I do not control the cost of shipping that is calculated by eBay. Free pick-up is always available (Rock Hill, SC). LESS IMPORTANT : Items are packed and ready for shipping when I make the listing. Combined shipping cannot be done if one item is larger than 8 x 8 x 8 packed. If it is possible, smaller items can be combined upon request prior to the payment. Guarantee : Item is guaranteed to be as described. I am a very honest seller hoping to deal with honest buyers. If I know something is wrong, I will disclose it but I certainly can make an honest mistake and will do my very best to correct it. Warning : Many of these older collectibles are not in compliance with today's safety standards. It is the responsibility of the buyer to determine whether or not they are still suitable for their intended purpose. Adult supervision is indispensable with any steam engine. Packaging :Items are packed carefully and should remain undamaged through a standard level of care during handling. LIVING ESTATE SALE DETAILS :I had my first steam engine when I was 9 years old. That was 65 years ago. I have been collecting them for 25 years and I am now 74. None of my descendants is interested in the collection, so I decided that it was time to liquidate. As of October 2024, I still have over 1,300 engines of all kinds to list. I believe in full disclosure. It takes me about an hour to list one item, between the assessment, the testing, the video, the photos, the description and the very careful packaging. I try to have very reasonable prices. At comparable quality, my prices are probably the lowest on the market.SU/AI
