Re: Boiler check valves
What scale?
Horizontal or vertical?
The basic concept of a check valve is pretty well established...and it you keep them clean will last for decades following the most basic ball and seat design.

LocoParts now has the Boiler check valves That Dave at Mercer used to offer. They feature a integral shut off valve.
Re: Boiler check valves
Can someone share drawings for an easy to build reliable check valve for general use in 1-1/2 scale? I’ve found many different variations in all different sizes but it’s hard to find feedback from people who have actually built them.

Agree!, Get that website going! No one is making check valves like that at the moment, probably will get some orders if you put the info out.
