        And another steam engine. This time a twin cylinder with reversing gear. I still need to time the valves but all the parts are there.

                  πŸ‘Š I think the style suits the subject matter and they are great. Any chance I can use these as art on the walls of my renders?

                          Mike, I'll have to give some thought to that. Which images specifically?

                              I'm asking about the sepia type renders/images.

                                Here's another one in progress.

                                This is based on dimensions in an article from a magazine published in January 1924. Many of the larger parts were available as castings and only the dimensions for machining them are included in the article. That required a forensic approach to modeling it. As an example the diameters of the cylinders weren't given so they had to be determined from the piston diameters.
