Continually adding more things to my plant. This weekend added a lineshaft from some spare parts I got from Charlie. The stanchions he gave me along with the rod, which I cut down to size, and found some pulleys online in which I soldered to the shaft rod.
It works very good! Demo below:

Thanks, Bruce. Yeah, a lot is going on. Took a lot of thought to get everything fitting right. Didn’t originally plan for so much on it but it worked out. Still have room for a dynamo connected up to the Lineshaft. Hmm…
Quickly running out of real estate to add more goodies. Like the looks of that!
Here’s a cool photo from the rear.

Be a massive job, but have you thought of lagging those couple of miles of PMR piping?
I use Keith Appleton's method....be warned it gives your fingers RSI after awhile!

I could, but I like the brass. I could’ve saved about $750 dollars U.S., by using copper pipework like Keith Appleton, but I elected for
Brass pipes. PMR charged an arm and a leg for the pieces especially speciality pieces, and it adds up FAST!
