A special section just for steam engines and boilers, as without these you may as well fit a sail.

Hi,

... The Linux CNC program is already installed on this machine? it is simple and I can learn it quickly.
Which CNC-program do you use?

You can give a command using the keyboard and mouse. Bat very carefully. I have already broken a lot of tools (mills and drills) before I learned how to do basic work. Ingvar.

I am not such a great specialist in this matte as Dietrich,but the valve as a whole turned out well. I am happy to admit that Dietrich -Dampfspieler makes a high quality product. without using such large machines as a mine.

Looking like it is coming along nicely! I really like how you fabricated the valve spool.
