Office of Steam Forum for Model & Toy Steam Gas & Hot Air Engines

Hi,

I had a couple of hours free this morning so I thought I would do a little more to the Beam Engine’s base.  The larger holes were plugged and I didn’t see what I could do to improve the look of the crank recess so I milled it out.  As there might be some screws underneath the base that it might be difficult to countersink and having found a bit of an old oak draw, I made some feet which were glued on.  Before any further work will be done to the oak base it will be varnished to protect it from oil while working on it.
