• The lack of a suitable size pipe adaptor fitting meant I decided to make one.

  The thread in the exhaust port is 3/16 with a thread pitch of 32 tpi. And the pipe fitting is a flare.

  And fitted to the engine.

• I have changed the steam inlet to an angled one which is much more user friendly

  This was the one I intended to use originally but could not find it.
  As is always the way, I found it the other day while looking for something entirely different and unrelated.

• The new inlet has a slightly larger internal diameter, I did not think it would make any difference but it does in fact run on a slightly lower pressure.
