Hi all, You may recall our search for components, namely a reverser bracket. The reverser is the mechanism that controls steam admission to the cylinders. Both the amount; cut off and direction of travel. We have been able to successfully have a pattern manufactured to enable us to have a brand new base and cover cast. When cast they will need to be machined to fit cap securing studs and mounting bolt holes for the feet. Also white metal applied to bearing surfaces. The transverse weigh shaft bearing surfaces also require machining. When completed they can be fitted and another piece of the jigsaw will be in place. See pics of reverser bracket patterns. Watch this space.
