Paolo, I know, I've been quiet for a while. But had to say....... Very, very nice set up you have crafted there, beautiful runner Thm: I've just read back to where I saw last (the burner creation). Both hand wheels look good to me ;D It's good to see it all finally running sweetly...

I've spoken with CC via e-mail recently..... He is ok, just working hard.... Like so many of us at the mo. Nice to know that others miss his input too ;D Ralph.

Now that's a very nice looking engine you got happening there Kvom Thm: You've certainly got a good eye ;) Now I can't remember the thread where I read this but it is as I recall a bad idea to run an engine in from the crank side, Un-natural wear on the parts.... I remember reading that it...

That's just a beautiful runner Kevin :bow: Nice chunk of aluminium for the base too :o You take a well earned rest..... What's next? :big: One day I may still try one of these.... One day when a day lasts about a year!!! ;) Ralph.

Whey hey ;D :bow: :bow: :bow: Nothing wrong with that Rich 8) I've been trying to view the vid's for 2 days but my crappy net connection has been playing up.... Still I got there eventually :) Holds a nice 30psi, spot on me thinks :D It's going to be great when you have your engine...

You got to be happy with this one Rich :bow: Aluminium is a bu#'4r without a buffing wheel!! you are best flating it first 800-1000 grit wet n dry with WD type thin oil on it... Some would go finer on the grades too, makes the final polishing easier! Plates that big would give most people...

Now that's why I want to build this engine... How good does it look when it's going slow?!?! Nice work Ross, :bow: ;D How good is that feeling when you get it running?! :D Looking forward to the next one ;D Ralph. P.S. There are some good threads on soldering out there, both silver...

The base looks good Kevin ;D Is that a new burner too? Waiting for the video :D Ralph.

Well you certainly can't top that much excitement ehh!? :big: Nice runner you Got there Kevin :bow: ;D As you said, "the mobile part to do" and it's a sweet victory well earned ;) Looking forward to seeing this all working as it was intended :) Ralph.

Good to see you back at it Paolo. ;D A self design for the mill repair... And the trap of not having the mill to make the parts on!!!! :o This is not good! Hopefully you will get it sorted out soon? Meanwhile, Your boiler is moving along ;) That's something Eh? Good luck with the mill...

Hi Kevin, I've had a little time and have been reading about this on Jan's site.... It seems that you are not the only one who had trouble with setting this engine up! I suppose you have read this already? But thought I'd put a link here to help others understand what you are up against...

Hi Roger, Don't forget something for scale ;D Glad you've been working away on this one... It is such a good looking little beast 8) Waiting for the photo's and a vid' ;) Ralph.

Hi Rich, Very neat! 8) Glad to see it all working, I really like the lever and pivot system for the vents... Very easy for me to remember :D No issues with the extra nuts on the front... They are needed so they must be there ;) Not wanting to sound pushy or such like, just a question...

I'm liking the look of this system for vent flow alteration ;D I was wondering where all the bits were going.... Got it now! I want to see it working....I'm sure that won't be too far away ;) Nice work as usual Rich :) Ralph.

Steve, We can always rely on you to find all the truly relevant information from any post ::) ;) Peter, I've sent you a little explainatory PM (sorry Shred).... There was no intent to cause offense or point fingers in your direction, I was trying to help people see the different ways of...
