made the last parts for inside the goblin lever box!!! I should be able to layout and mark the steam ports and passages,, the valve and cylinder travel so the levers and pivot can be drawn out..  :cheers:

A very complex matter. I'm excited to see how it works when the pump is finished.

Well done!  And its 10 pounds of levers in a 5 pound box...  Timing all that will be interesting...

Hey Tghs,


Just got my copy of the May/June issue of Live Steam, your pictures of the condensate pump are featured on the Reader Photo page, look great!!

Think they send you the next few issues too, at least they used to. If you already have a subscription  they extend it a few issues. When all is done, you need to do an article!

issue and extras in the box yesterday,, sending those photos was for asking about doing an article,, work schedule still sucks and lots of work at home is keeping from doing lots of "fun" things..
