Steaming up
Quick question guys, with a standard Mamod boiler (the one with a plastic water gauge, of course), Can you use the high pressure safty valve, and kind of leave it to steam up until it goes off? I see lot's of videos on youtube of steamin' safety valve's, so I was just wondering.

Loose wheel
Hi guys, It's me again but this time My problem is a little different. After succesfull painting, baking, and re-assembling my Mamod I noticed that the left front wheel is slipping (lose) on its axle. This prevents it from running. Does anyone know anything about tightening these?
