Turning the pistons on the lathe and fitting - EP79 Project Tinkerbell - 7 1/4" Steam Loco Build
In this episode of the 7.25" gauge steam locomotive build we finish turning all faces of the pistons on the Warco GH1440 lathe before fitting on the piston rods and machining final diameter. Once machined we look at test fitting the pistons in the bore of the locomotive. We also do a fair bit of measuring!!
