I just woke up and thought bloody hell did I sleep in all day? 😂

" There's a valve in there somewhere, I just gotta find it". I laughed, I haven't heard that in a while.

I was mentally shouting at my tablet, "5/16 BSW, John." But you didn't hear me. Doubt that there are many of us have not made a mistake like that. But not many KZbinrs prepared to show it. Another nice little job John.

Nice to meet you at the Corbridge Steam Rally yesterday.

[@RalfyCustoms]

Morning Johnny man, think you f@cked up the schedule 😂 maybe your having a numbers brain fart? 1/4 vs 5/16 😅 Have a great day buddy

[@leerogers6423]

You're up early John. Another tidy little job to keep a big engine running, very nice.

[@eyuptony]

Good result John. May I suggest an old school tip? If you reduce one of those tightening lugs in length, if it ever works loose again, it won't unscrew fully and drop off. It will only unscrew less than one revolution until the heaviest/longest lug is at the bottom. Like a one lugged wing nut. Gravity prevents the lug from unscrewing itself uphill. The heaviest lug remains at the lowest point when loose.

Did you set the clock to am instead of pm 07:00 instead of 19:00 ?, Sunday morning night cap 😂

To anyone sitting on the fence in regards to supporting John on patreon, Ive been happily supporting him since he started his patreon page. The quality and the amount of content he makes available cant be beaten. Id highly recommend doing it because you really are getting value for money, especially compared to other larger youtubers.

Wheres there steam, theres a pot of tea.

[@rmnkvlnk]

Is there any packing in the valve? I didn’t see it in the video, also it seems that there is no packing nut. I would expect that the steam and oil would escape through the orifice where the needle screws in, but it looks like they don’t. I’m trying to build small and minimal valve for pressurized gasoline and looking for some ideas

[@doubleboost]

The valve spindle has a seat at both ends It only seals full open or closed . That is all it needs to do

[@bobhudson6659]

Ha. Another source of hot air (and oil). Laugh. You laugh at yourself. My turn. But I have done a lot of other jobs where my so called friends take the mickey out of me. Retired mechanic/machinist in old convict settlement Down Under.
