I have a merry weather vertical boiler, which came out of a steam launch. Its about two foot tall and 16 inch diameter and has a working pressure of 100 psi.

I have some fittings for it but not all. I need clack valves, injectors, whistle valve and whistle, piping and valves etc.

Most of the threaded holes in the barrel appear to be 3/8 bsp.

Can anyone tell me what would be the best size pipe to use and what fittings would be best and where to obtain these things from?

Thankyou for any ideas

cheers

Jon
