 :ThumbsUp: :ThumbsUp: :ThumbsUp: That's a fine engine David, and it looked to be running great in the video. Hope you get the regulator issue fixed without too much bother.  :cheers:

That clip was taken at the Oxford 'Dreaming Spires' rally and she worked  just fine. The only discovery was that the chap who built this some 30 years ago had not varnished the lining done with waterslide transfers. In the teaming rain 'waterslide transfers' took on a new meaning so the tender will need relining. I think my very good engineer friend with this 3d printing kit may make a pair of templates to allow me to do this shortly.

In the meantime the marvels of modern gadgets allows me to send this from my laptop using my mobile phone as a hotspot while sitting in a canal boat close to Manchester on the Bridgewater Canal built (or dug) around 1770, that was before Trafalgar or Waterloo!!!!

Cheers David
