I was asked to stretch a throttle linkage from 6" to 17". Below is a pic of the 6" linkage.

If you want to see how I got from the above to the one below,

follow this link. Throttle linkage

The reason I put this post here is that it goes on a hot rod car and not on a steam engine. But the techniques could be useful here. ;)

Wow!

Those pix were so cool they no longer show up on either site, no doubt due to traffic of people looking at them.

I'm sure they'll come back momentarily.

Best,
