Borderer Piston valve version
stevendavis:
Really nice work so far!
Team ricky:
Cheers chaps ;)
I’ve really enjoyed my first engine !!
I think I’m going to start a cast iron version of the Borderer, I like the design and the looks and with care they can look very tidy indeed!
So the plan will be all parts made not cast , Block , valve chests covers, trunks, cylinder covers, base all cast iron , Then mild steel for rods, crank, eccentric
I guess bronze pistons and stainless rods
Bronze cross heads and bearings
Should look a bit more scale in cast iron and wood cladding ;)
Oh and slide valve for this one as it won’t be fitted to a boat just on display
