Nice work Travis!

Title: P60 ball governor gift installed.
Post by: Steamburns on April 04, 2024, 08:15:17 pm

Charlie gifted me a beautiful P60 ball governor which we weren’t sure would work but sure enough I got it to work. He had several spares.

Took some basic engineering and puzzle solving skills…. But it works!!!! It was quite exciting to see it in action.   

I do want to adjust it a bit more so the balls fly out further so I need to figure out how the spring action works.

Thanks again TXlabman for your generosity.
