| Stuart or PM Research boiler | |

| Looking for a good steaming boiler suitable for gas firing. I | |
| would like to pick up a Stuart or PM Research boiler or | |
| something similar. I have a PM Research #7 that I want to do | |
| some work with. I looked at the new 504�s but the cost is a | |
| little bit too much. | |

| Thanks Wayne. I have looked at those but was hoping to find one | |
| with all the fittings. Getting them from Stuart gets expensive | |
| too. I may end up just making one myself. | |

| Good luck finding a boiler suitable for your needs. Keep an eye | |
| open on eBay. | |
| I found a brand new never fired 504 (one of the new ones) modern | |
| insulation too last year for $700.00. An absolute bargain. | |

| Mike you definitely got a bargain. I just snagged a nice 500 | |
| from EBay. It should work well with my PM Research #3. I�m | |
| regretting selling most of my stuff a few years back. I had 2 of | |
| the 504s and a nice SH4 return flue boiler. Those appear to be | |
| extremely rare. If I recall correctly it was being sold by a | |
| pawn shop. It was brand new with a water pump and tank. It had a | |
| $500 buy it now and I jumped on it. That was one advantage of | |
| starting my job at 3AM. I would check out eBay while I had my | |
| coffee and a cigarette before getting ready for work. I got some | |
| good deals on new listings. | |

| Yeah I have that one too and I must say it�s got a lot of power | |
| and the price isn�t bad either. It used to be a lot cheaper when | |
| I bought it. A good solid boiler. | |
