Wanted to share an update with my Dolly 364/1. The pressure guage that was original to it had broke and was leaking steam. I removed it altogether, and found the union to be leaking as well. Removed that, and found it to be metric M7x1.0.
Instead of that, I used a Marklin whistle with an O ring to make a seal, and I’m happy to announce it finally has no more leaks. All fittings have rubber O rings as well. The boiler doesn’t drink water as fast now, and has SO much more power. In fact at times it is too much power! None the less I am so happy with this. [attachimg=1][attachimg=2]
