Yes the video link now works fine Geoff.... The level of low speed control is extremely impressive!

That's how we all dream ours should go (but somehow they don't)   ;)

Lovely example Geoff. Well done

Thank you all for your kind words. The secret, long stroke to bore ratio in this case double. :sunglasses You will notice in the previous video the revs where much higher, but a lot of steam was escaping, although I had lapped the faces well.  :thinking Having lapped the faces when on the pivot the ends with more movement than the center ground down leaving the face hard around the pivot. :darn so I milled around the pivot now no steam escapes put no high revs. Going in the boat as soon as I can find the time. :vacation Geoff

This is the latest experiment with the smoke, plenty and darker than it looks on screen.    But a bit volatile. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r75f1EVTL6A
