David Andrews Princess - 6206 Princess Marie Louise

Returning today, to the Princess I tackled the cylinders there was some discussion over on Western Thunder as to the Valve guides and chests being too far away from the edge of the cylinders when compared to a photo that Ian Allen shared.


I have filed quite a bit off but being careful not to overdo it. Easier to take more off than to add it back.

Looking at the photo in my last post I am not sure that you can really tell that I have taken any off but I have.








I have also dry fitted the cylinder wrappers again I won't be soldering them in place until I am sure that they don't need adjusting.

 

I am not quite sure how the previous post snuck in here but the main build of the Princess loco can be found HERE
