--I'm searching for info on a fellow named Andrew G Thompson who, back in 1977, wrote an article in Live Steam magazine about how to build a small steam calliope. In following issues he had a small ad featuring cored bronze calliope valve castings. These appear to be exactly what I need for my calliope project and I'm looking for these, or for something similar. Has anyone a bit more info to add? Thanx,
Don't know about 1977 but Live Steam Jan/Feb 2003 (Vol 37/1) through to Sept/Oct 2003 has a full series by Conrad Milster on building a Steam Caliope.

--Ha! That's 'calliope', not 'calamari'! :-)
'Calamari' isn't that Greek for 'Good Day' (vbg)
