    I came across this vintage Badger's 40 Gal. Chemical Engine. I don't know anything about this and am hoping someone has some info on it, like history, age, value, etc.
    Thanks....Steve

      I don't know about these, but I saw one on a restoration show, not sure which one. I think inside is a container that when released mixes with the tank contents, and sets off a reaction, so its kind of a one time use then recharge it when done. Sort of a you have to use all of it at once. I could be wrong, but I bet there are blueprints available online.
