Excellent. I won’t have to pay somebody to do it for me because I’ve just watched you do it and explain everything step by step. Good work.

Used to pack steam valves on war ships in the navy, we had some useless tool called a packing extractor, but after the gland seat had been in a few months and been tightened up a few times the packing was ROCK hard so the old scribber was the tool of choice to get packing out 🏴👍we also used to put a 45 degree angle on the cut packing rather than a butt joint

Couldn't you use the brass boss rotated 90 degreed to push the packing in square?

That was 1 of the most useful narrowboat videos I've seen, have you any other DIY videos planned ?

Thanks for the "how to" demonstration. I thought it was the grease that stopped the water.

Great video. If there are two sizes of packing and you don’t know the size until you get one piece out you can’t pre cut your packing unless you pre cut both sizes.

Thankyou. Yes that's all you can really do, have both sizes ready and cut then you'll be prepared, it's a pain, but it's a fail safe way. Thanks of the feedback 👍
