Quick intro to a project I'm starting:
I will be making patterns for a piston valve cylinder (3" bore, 4" stroke) that will then replace the slide valve High Pressure cylinder on the Fred Semple 3"+5"x4" 10hp vee-compound as well as the cylinder on the Fred Semple 5hp single cylinder engine. We have one of the 5hp engines running the genset on my father's 40ft steamboat "Persistance"
This is a project to fix a problem that doesn't really exist and is more of an engineering, patternmaking, and machining exercise in preparation for a much larger project in the future...
