Dennis see where it started to melt where I soldered the steam lines in?
That was the smallest flame possible, gotta' be quick!
Moved a bit further with it this morning, looking good.
I drill and thread 1/8th by 40 tpi .
 Thread pipe . Screw in and “electric solder iron “

I'll try that on the next two.
I drilled oiling holes for the shaft.
Where these ever a commercial Cranko line Dennis?
What's the backstory?
