- The pneumatic motor is a smaller version of a fully functional model of a steam engine, which is operated by blowing into a specific socket or using a normal air balloon. The heat propels the pneumatic engine and it starts!
- An air pressure tachometer is integrated into the design for correct measurement of working speed.
- No need to wrack your heads about storing spare parts – all you have to do is use the two built-in compartments that offer ample space for those components.
- All parts are made of plywood that enhances longevity – you don’t have to worry about them getting corroded or rusted.
- No drill, screwdriver or any other tool required while assembling. In fact, you don’t need glue as well.
- The steam engine is designed in a vintage style, so you can easily use it as a decorative item in your living room or dining hall.
