This morning I drilled and tapped the cylinder for the six long studs that attach the steam chest and lid to the cylinder. Then I bored the steam chest walls clearance and offered the chest up to the studs. It slipped on all six studs with no adjustments needed. Perfect. I deserve my breakfast!

Re: Shed Matters 3
This morning was the equivalent of pausing and taking a deep breath. I hadn't one particular task in mind but the general one of looking at these castings and refining the finish of all of them. I spent 45 minutes and I'm satisfied they are a better finish and fit than when I started. That will do me. I shall go and look for breakfast now.
