Abstract
IN the summer of 1893, I made some experiments on the effect of steam-jacketing small steam-engine cylinders by placing the whole of the cylinder and valve chest inside the boiler; the increase of economy was so marked, that I was led to try whether a small toy engine could be made to sustain its own weight in the air by the lifting power of an air screw on the crank-shaft.
