Are you sure that 4" dia boiler is going to be big enough to run an engine with a 1 1/2" x 1 1/2" cylinder?

Excellent! By a happy coincidence, I'm building a 4" Scotch boiler strictly to the KN Harris design to demo the little Sirius that I will be making soon.
John, are you intending to show your boiler build here? I'd be interested to see how it develops

I've not made any connection to it on this thread as this No.9 is a pleasant interlude while I wait for the Sirius crankcase to arrive, so the question was quite unnecessary.John
