Thanks for the info ihad been using a zero front rake in the mistaken belief that it would stop dig in Thanks again Well as my mobility has decreased I have got rid of my loco,s and now make stationary engines At the moment I am on with the Galway none dead centre engine A few machine mods to make them easier to use sitting down difficult to wangle the handles on crutches :) Stuart |

Hi Stuart Sorry to here you had to get rid of your loco :( , but glad to here your still active in the shop , nowt wrong with a good stationary engine , and the Galway is a fine example :thumbup: I hope you will take the time to post a few photos when its done :poke: or in progress :poke: :poke: :) Just think of the cutter as a single tooth on a broach , good and sharp it takes me less than a minute to cut a 1/4 key 1 1/4 long in steel :thumbup: Rob |

Yes Rob it was quite a wrench to part it was not one but four the two latest ones one was part built , both not even fired but with a boiler maker built boiler with complete paper trail I sold them in exchange for a carrier bag of twenty pound notes looked like a bag of bricks. The other two were found a good home As to the Galloway it will be a long time as I am not as quick as I used to be but its getting there that brings me the greatest pleasure Stuart |
