I'll be looking for them.

If you do (and I for one am hoping you do), lots of pics making them please. There's never enough info and help in making valves. And like what's been said below...you do great work.

Firebird:
Hi

Carl I'll certainly strip one and take some photo's and measurements. Still not sure whether or not I'll make some though.

But now you have raised the subject I have made a few valves, pressure, regulator, check etc and also a couple of displacement lubricators. If there is enough interest I could dig out some photos and show how I made them.

Cheers

Rich

Dave Sohlstrom:
For reaming the tapered hole just build a tapered D bit. Turn it at the same compound setting when you make the tapered plug for the valve. Then just a touch of lapping and they will fit like a glove.

Firebird:
Hi

Well they arrived and they are small.



I don't think I'll even try to make some, I can barely hold the little b****** let alone make them :Lol:





Cheers

They look to be well made - and very easy to fit discharge pipes to! Good buying.
