Somewhere, there is/was a description of a simple horizontal steam engine said to be easy to build with only a lathe and drilling machine.

I think the name was Stuart Harper but am not sure.

Does anyone know of this and where I can find it?

Many thanks

Richard.

Stewart Hart? I built one of these and it works, not too difficult. The plans are on the internet, try PottyMill
