Hobbyist's Steam Engine

The Hobbyist's Steam Engine is an engine from Railcraft by CovertJaguar. This machine is used to create MJ, or Minecraft Joules (Buildcraft power). This engine requires water, a redstone signal, and either solid fuel or steam. If this engine is fueled off of solid fuels, it will output 1.6MJ/t, and if it is fueled using steam, it will output 2MJ/t, making it more efficient than the Buildcraft Stirling Engine.

Usage
The Hobbyist's Steam Engine needs to be supplied with water, and fueled with any type of solid fuel, or steam from a Steam Boiler. The hotter this engine gets (more it runs), the less fuel it will use. Place the engine down, and connect it to a machine, or move the energy along using a Redstone Energy Cell, Redstone Energy Conduits, or Conductive Pipes to transport the energy.

Power
The Hobbyist's Steam Engine produces 1.6MJ/t maximum when using solid fuels, and 2MJ/t maximum using Steam.

The smaller colored side of the Stirling Engine is the side which is providing power. The orientation of the engine can be changed using a BuildCraft wrench.
