"Getting Down and Dirty with Mrs. Robinson"....... The finale. This is the last instalment of this long saga..... Her present condition is now as I hoped it would be, when she came to me as an orphan, almost 9 months ago..... ::) She ran faultlessly yesterday, for almost an hour....... :D Work left to do, is mostly cosmetic. Replace temporary link pins. Mend broken foot. Sort speed control screw. Tidy up castings, and paint. Oh! And replace lathe motor, which hasn't been happy since machining the 2lb weight into a displacer sleeve. When standing idle yesterday, it suddenly started up! Full revs, in reverse! Then stopped with a big flash/ pop! :palm: Sigh .... There's allus summat needing attention...... :bang: Thanks, to everyone, for all your great help and support. More of similar to come, in the future. :thumbup: (Incidentally, hasn't anyone spotted the latest little waif, in the last video)? :scratch: David D |

| stirling lad:
