Thank You Gil and Stoker !
Your responses are heart warming and appreciated.
Gil, going further by asking Gary for help is above and beyond normal and reflects your support
of the hobby and assisting in sharing information speaks well of your commitment to our hobby
Thank you from the bottom of my heart!

As a follow up . the Mariners Museum is trying to ascertain the Monitors Steam Engine interpretation
history  and in this case, Ray's ability to define the engines construction over 30 years ago
Thanks fellow and thanks for the video references
Beside my lecture, the Mariners Museum has planned on a 4 part video series on Monitors engines.
Part one was released with "Steam" as the subject, since many folks do not understand what Steam is  ?
The balance will be on operation of the engine. Even though I helped film their questions, I do not know what the content will be about at this time .
They spent 4 days in my shop asking questions .. so i am also looking forward to it as well.

PS while typing this I was informed that the second video of the 4 part series has been posted, so I guess I will be watching it to see if I screwed up  ??

Seriously , They did not use a script, it was all off the cuff so I do not know what they were focused on other than information on the engines operation

So will be watching it right now  ! !!!   Thanks Stoker
