I`ve been working on this during the odd few minutes I get in my free time so no construction pictures again although most of these parts were quite straight forward.
So here is everything together
Steam chest mounted –
…eccentric mounting
Flywheel, still needs more work but running true.
Piston…
Piston at the highest point in the cylinder, it gets a good sweep!
Steam chest cover:
Inside the steam chest:
and my collection of bits so far…
So I just have the glands, eccentric and valve parts to make and I should be able to give it a fire up. Still a while to go I guess but before Christmas I hope!
