G'day Ron I have found your explanation on how to build the 10V very good, you are explaining it very well and it's easy to follow thank you for filming the building of this kind regards John Tasmania Australia
A big thank to you for this series, I hope you continue, to the end, the 10v is a model kit that I have in my small workshop waiting to be built, thank you for taking the time and effort for doing the uploads.
Nice work Ron, built the same engine about 10 years ago using only a 9x20 lathe, would like to do it again now I have a mill as the filing is a pain. Lucky in Australia we still have easy access to BA and ME stuff as well as metric which makes thing easier if we lose a few nut and bolts. Only problem I had was rushing towards the end as I couldn't wait to get it running, in hind sight accept that if you follow each step with best practice the finished model will run perfectly.
For the small spigot on the outside of the top cover, you could probably have added that on whilst parting off, considering it isn't a super critical size. It's looking good though
Arrgh, where is part 6b ? I'm hooked and this is so interesting. I am working on a #5 steam engine by P.M. Research. It has become painfully obvious, that I will need a Mini Mill to complete this project. I have produced some of the parts that don't require a Mill but ....Oh well. Right now I have too many irons in the fire, and yet another machine isn't in the plan. I received the kit for Christmas and spending $1000 on a mill to make a $110.00 kit needs evaluating. I have a 9 inch SB lathe and a couple of Mini lathes. Great videos and look for the "rest of the story" ...Ken... retired old guy
Big smashup in the shop. That steam cylinder got loose at 1500 rpm and hit him square in the forehead. He's been in hospital ever since, but can blink his eyes for yes and no and is starting to recognize faces again. The TH-cam videos are over...he probably doesn't even remember posting these. So sad...
Wonder if the report of him getting injured is correct? I hope not but see no currect video. Sorry if he can no longer make video as I like his 10V video series start..🤕🥲
Hi Ron, Thanks for posting this series. Keep going. I have the same kit and I'm watching you do yours before I do mine! Are you going to use the BA threads or American threads?
I am using BA threads. High-quality nuts machined from hex bar stock are readily available from model engineering suppliers in the UK. I considered using SAE threads as I already have the taps and dies, but I couldn't find a source for high-quality-nuts. Mass-produced nuts are typically stamped from sheet steel, and they don't look nearly as nice.
GREAT !! just spent over an hour watching this series only to b left high and dry with an unfinished series..... Did u get hit by a bus or something :( :(

Your doing a grand job ! Thanks for taking the time to make these very informative videos!
Any more progress?
Thanks
Thanks for sharing looking forward for more
no continue?
Did you ever finish this?
Enjoyed this a lot ,would love to see the rest ?.
Where's the rest of this build? Have you finished it? Quite liked your methodology and presenting style
we're the rest of the build ?
I hope you keep sharing

It's looking good though
Any updates on the new videos
Where is the rest of the build? :-(
Where is the rest of the build?
Did he face off the top cover without putting the raised area on it? Maybe that’s why this series ended? Too bad, I was enjoying it.
hi. do you plan to complete this series. thank you.
Hightec machines in use to build a little simple machine...... where is the handtool Crafts?
Love your videos. What model milling machine and lathe are you using?

How's the engine coming along? I'm working on some similar parts. Looking forward to the main bearings...
What happened? His was going so good, then you disappeared ? I hope nothing is wrong and you are well.
