That Big Kev has done it again. It's a steam chest lid for one of these donkey engines that Henry Brown used to make. Its a good quality casting and the other side is flat so Newton used to use it as a surface plate.
Next one?

It was getting a bit big so it's been split down into 3 smaller plants now, all are doing well.
Would you like one as a prize?
