Anna Adventures

Post by MTA » Sat Aug 02, 2008 4:49 pm

Today, I took Anna to a friend of mine's open day of his garden line.

Unfortunately she was very sluggish running forwards, but she ran very well in reverse. At first, I found the steam supply pipe union nuts had become loose so I tightened them up, only to find the right hand eccentric isn't revolving around the fixed point. I shall have to take a look at that before she runs again.

For now, some pics :D

Thanks for posting those photos Si.

Glad to see Anna under steam, and I'm sure you will have her running properly very soon.
