Got a runner

[mechman48]

Just finished my S10V & gave it a run... running on 2 psi ... :thumbup:. Added a modification... fitted a Perspex valve chest cover to allow viewing of the slide valve operating. Had a few issues when building like not measuring twice, sausage fingers... I know, excuses but hey I'm damned pleased as punch.

Very nice! Looks and runs great.

Sounds good. Finished mine about a year ago, it had been previously cobbled by some poor soul. I managed to save it, finally. I do like the see-through steam chest cover. what did you use for the cover seal? Glue? gasket? Naked?

Regards, TC

Just used a paper gasket as the supplied gasket was damaged, just made sure the mating surface was clean & smooth.
