THAT is the inside of a Steam Turban, probably going on a very large Generator. I get to work in a few places that have BIG things like that, and was allowed to grab some pics. Figure that sucka is about 20 to 40 TONS of steel and alloys to turn steam into POWER. Go to the thread and see the 300 TON lift and other components I posted.

Wow....a "steam turban". Is that something used in a beauty parlor or something used by Lawrence of Arabia to keep his hair from trying out in the desert sun?

Oh.....you mean "turbine". Never mind........ :lol:
