Hello all,
I have a very basic question regarding a works in progress.
I am building "An unusual steam engine" from plans in Live steam magazina circa 1975 and the drawings call for a brass valve body 1/4" I.D, and a sliding valve with material not specified.
I have made the valve also from brass. Should I have used steel and not brass?
Your help would be appreciated
Regards
Phil
