The grate was modified to fit the new boiler. Some small changes involved milling away the corners of the outer bars to give some clearance on the firebox flanged plates. To do this the grate was dismantled and all the bits given a quick clean up for reassembly after the milling was done. While at it the mild steel pins were replaced with stainless steel ones and rivetted over.
Some brass tags were made to mount the ashpan and grate assembly off the boiler.
Happy steaming!
