Shed Matters 3

[Stanley]

I started the milling operations under the VM this morning and cut the face of the crosshead slide, the inside of the bearing carriers until the crankshaft fitted with room for the cheeks of the bearings and finally for this morning, the face of the target end.That all took 45 minutes and now I am ready for my breakfast.

This morning I milled all the surfaces that needed it and cut the horns that will hold the crankshaft brasses to the sizes needed. I now have a bit of handwork to do on the bed to refine it ready for fitting to the base. The job now is breakfast.
