1/3/17 - Pansy

Today was one of those days where either my phone was flat or I forgot to take a photo!  Such was the excitement!

However, the work was progressing with the Pansy boiler, either it was in the hearth for more solder ups, or in the acid for more clean ups.  In between times the lathe and mill was kept busy machining up some regulator bits.

Hoping to get it under the boiler inspector's nose very shortly, and then we can get the backhead and tubeplate on.  Some more design work coming up to rework the layout of the cab valves and steam supply  as I'm not particularly fond of how it was laid out previously!  The driver experience and a neat cab is very important in my opinion! 

Happy steaming!
