You forgot the radio control and CCTV so the elves don't have to go out in the heat/cold to run this beast.Don
I just went back and looked at post 3245, the CAD drawing of the engine. I see that each side has a crank that drives a shaft in the three bearings on top of the engine, then a second crank drives the slide valve. That shaft must be split in the center journal? You cant have each end of the shaft being rocked by the eccentric on that cylinder. What holds that rocker shaft to keep it sliding out of the bearings?What am I missing?
Chris, I am following along and enjoying the fine detail of your project and your methods. Looking at the valve linkage and the pivoting rods on top of the crosshead guide, they seem to be crying out for some Zerk fittings.Jerry
