Hi,
Continuing, the description of the construction of the displacement lubricator made for the Biscuit Tin Steam Engine.
A top plug was made for the lubricator which had a recess turned in it for an ‘0’ ring and was threaded for a screw cover. (P.111).
The top plug fitted in the lubricator body. (P.112)
The Biscuit Tin Engine inverted with the completed lubricator body fitted to the engine base plate. (P.113).
An ‘0’ ring was fitted into a recess turned in the screw lubricator cover. (P.114).
To remove the lubricator cover from the body cover a hexagonal section was soldered to it. (P.115).
To make the lubricator look like a valve a hand wheel was fitted. (P.116).
