Newbie Posts: 48 Group: Members Member #4 Joined: August 14, 2006	i don't have any bowmans so i can't put up a pic. i am more than willing to visit you if you if and that way i can give you any advice on them even if i can't aford them, just so you don't get ripped off. i have given you my mobile and email its up to you, as without seeing them on a pic or in the flesh it is very hard to give advice

Newbie Posts: 17 Group: Members Member #23 Joined: November 12, 2006	Hi, could you tell me what a boiler stay is please? Also, please give me a rough estimate on how much it is worth. Matthew

Newbie Posts: 48 Group: Members Member #4 Joined: August 14, 2006	its the bit that holds the boiler, as for its worth anywhere between 100-250 but like i said it depends on so much the condition and origanality

Newbie Posts: 17 Group: Members Member #23 Joined: November 12, 2006	Hi, well, i dont see how that can leak! it doesnt anyway, dad has steamed it last weekend. i have only seen one other, and that was on a forum called the Mamod Forums and other live steam forums or something like that. i am lurking in the shadows at the moment on there as a guest, have you ever seen this forum before? is it worth joining? Thank-you Matthew

Newbie Posts: 48 Group: Members Member #4 Joined: August 14, 2006	Yes I do know the forum and it has some very good members the man you should talk to is moosemam. this is the man i have got the info from for your bowman I no longer use the forum .It is a shame that you have not contacted me and my offers of help, but that is your prerogative ,so I think this draws the mater of your engines to a close

Newbie Posts: 17 Group: Members Member #23 Joined: November 12, 2006	Hi, I keep asking you about it, about how much it worth etc, but i dont get a responce to my question. mooseman. right, ill contact him. so again i will ask, how much do you think it is worth? are they rare? thanks Matthew
