That's true, and I just figured out that I was trying to machime them backwards. all along. Variuos miss cutsa ruined them but I just realized I had been cutting #1 throw at the fly wheel end. I'm really dense sometimes. Ron
The pairs of valve levers are remade, starting to install them. No new pics, they look just like the old ones, just a bit longer. Should be able to start timing the valves over the weekend, between other things going on...

Wow that's looking great Chris! Glad to hear a steady runner is not far off. Re the eccentric link interference - as Stewart Hart has said, "a little clearance never got in the road." I'm surprised the shop elves aren't getting in your way doing "par-kour" style post to post jumps on the steam chest studs! (If they do, grease the ends when they aren't looking. Gravity and evil will do the rest.)
