When you dismantle it again to correct the globe valve position being before the safety valve, you might want to consider installing a union joint or three to ease future maintenance and modifications. ;c)
This is a good idea. I put one on the water pump which made removal very easy. Putting a union joint at the steam pipe on top of the boiler before the SV, and one near the end of the steam line would definately be a good thing. Measurements will be tricky to have it match up to what is current, though.
You don't seem to be the least bit daunted by matters of fitment, so you can simply consider fitting some union joints in as your next enjoyable challenge.
