The pressure vessel for the steam plant was designed to operated at 30psi and provide the oscillating steam engine project with enough steam for 15 to 20 minutes of run time. Ultimately the steam plant was to be used in a model boat and so the firebox housing was designed to have the lowest profile possible, whilst still providing enough space for solid fuel firing.

Read MoreI am building a vertical steam boiler to power my PM Research 6CI Steam Engine and to learn what I can about model boilermaking. I am posting my building experience with this boiler for the benefit of other amateur model engineers and those who are fascinated with steam power like myself. If you have any questions or comments about this project

The end caps you are thinking of should be ok but they will need to be stayed, I prefered to use internal end caps because they looked neater but they will have to be 2.5mm thick copper to conform to model boiler regulations.
