I started on the crosshead guides this morning. Here they are cut to length and with the longitudinal channel cut into them. Now they need refining and fitting. That comes tomorrow. Now I am focussed on breakfast.

Re: Shed Matters 3
Another small but accurate step. I finished refining the finish on the crosshead guides and then measured and marked for the 5BA clearance holes for the set screws that hold the bars in place. Then I found the six set screws that will be needed. So I am ready now to transfer my attention to the engine bed and fit the guides. Now I'm looking forward to my breakfast.
