Methusalah was a whipper snapper. I turned out the new pistons today, I made them from cast this time [ it was in the scrap bin] so far, I am liking the results. Waiting on the graphite packing to arrive to turn out the rod seal seats and nuts. I am still pondering the valve setup and whether to make the engine reversing or make a transmission to reverse the paddlewheel.
