Hi, Happy new year to all modelers.
I would like to run my 2in scale D&NY traction engine in my workshop over the winter so as to not get smoked out with running it on coal. I was wondering if I was to build a ceramic burner to fit the ash pan area. (1) would it work, (2) would enough heat be generated, (3) what size can ceramic burners be made up to. (4) what size of jet would be reccomened as a starting point. Look forward to those New Years answers.

Garry, If you've got one of those DIY blow lamps things that use the disposable gas canisters give that a try first. If you haven't get one, they are very useful generally. If you are buying better to push the boat out and get the self ignite type, they save a lot of faff.
