More paint updates…. Painted all the globe valves and a few “extras”
Looks wicked in my eyes.

I put a whistle warning valve on the whistle. When the whistle is cold, I can open the valve just slightly and warm up the whistle without it splashing and blowing water everywhere. Once it’s warm, I open the valve fully. Works well!

Looks good, yes there sounds like there's a knock somewhere.
Probably need a new crank arm and crank pin… will have to phone Stuart.
Wouldn't stress too much over it yet.

Well thank you. The blue really looked cooler than I expected it to.

Spent about 5 hours tonight repainting this plant and the accessories so they all match. I couldn’t stand that horrible yellow paint anymore.
Was quite a bit of work but got it done. The glossy paint really to me looks beautiful and Blue is my favorite color. I did the fly wheel a dark blue with the rest a baby blue.
I hope you guys like it.
I’m letting it fully cure for 24-48 hours before I run it. [attachimg=1][attachimg=2][attachimg=3][attachimg=4][attachimg=5]
