I`m struggling to keep up with scrapman but I`ve been working on this during the odd few minutes I get in my free time so no construction pictures 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!

NickG:
Brilliant Chris,

Great work and nice pics. Not far off at all - am confident you'll have a runner before Christmas.

scrapman:
It's coming along nicely Chris  :clap: you will soon have it running,

Ray,

raynerd:
Been a bit poorly for the last few days, man flu. So I had it running at the weekend but on and off, things were a bit too tight and also I had made a couple of mistakes which I`ll post about later. But here is it running. I just reassembled it on the kitchen table, with a hanky in my hand feeling sorry for myself. Plugged it in to compressor and off it went!! Well that has cheered me up, think I`m feeling a bit better now as well :)

Gerhard Olivier:
Congratulations on a RUNNER

Nice build Chris

Gerhard
