Things are moving right along... got the steam ports in the cylinder, finished the valve assembly, finished the reversing gear, got the oak lagging done, got all the gaskets cut out(just have to punch the bolt holes in them), so the ONLY machining left to do is the piston! (Then a whole lot of tweaking to get 'er running, I don't doubt!) Next time you see this engine will be "first run"

Thanks for the kind comments, especially from you Steve, after watching your water pressure build come together I have had to readjust my aiming point.... (please please please put out some plans....)

I'm out of town for the next three weeks, after which I will try to figure out how to do some video....

Cheers from damn pleased Joe :big:
 
Well done Joe,

I bet with that magical pair you've got a smile on both sides of your face.

Lovely work.

John
 
Congrats Joe!

I'd say you have every right to be damn pleased!
