Those who have seen the blue Mamod I made will notice the slightly odd steam dome it has, which was made quickly using an old pipe fitting. To day I made a start on the propper one.

The old

And the new

That looks very nice Dan - I look forward to seeing the next stage as I have never been brave enough to tackle the flared part!
Cheers
Chris

Nice, how do you get the curves in it??

Finished this on saturday but wanted to give it a polish first. I did the curves by turning a squared off version then rounded the curves using a file.
