Is there any greater pleasure in life than another post by Mayhugh1 or River gypsy...

Just saying...

I agree! That 18 cylinder is a cut above the rest.

My machining time is taken up by my work http://www.concertina.com.au/Concertinaphotos.html at the moment but one of these days when it is not there will be a few steam engines coming out of the shed...

Cheers

Thats some beautiful work you're doing there, Chris. I've always had the urge to build a harp myself, but so far there's always been too many distractions...

Thanks for your kind words.

In relation to your harp project, around 1980 somewhere I read a book, (might have been called Jupiter's Travels) about a guy who rode a Triumph motorcycle around the world, a great exercise in patience. The thing I recall most clearly was his declaration, "the interruptions are the journey..."

They do keep life interesting, thats for sure! All I really need to get done what I want to do is early retirement
