Excellent suggestion, and hopefully there will be sufficient interest, especially for L plate wearers like myself.

Perhaps I may be allowed to get the ball rolling.

Invicta, two of them, part finished,  a recent purchase on this forum.

Now all I have to do is purchase a suitable lathe , mill and drill and have a go, that is when I can work out what to buy.

Thread: M E Beam engine governor gears

Thank you both very much indeed - appreciated.

So now wondering if best to pay the Reeves price, and it may be just as expensive to get the small one cut ?

The drawing of the gears is shown on page 643 in the 25th may 1960 model engineer book.

I think this may be volume 122, issue 3072

From the model engineer article i need the smaller of the two, the pinion gear that goes on the bottom of the governor shaft.

Hopefully this will help -- 18t, 32dp. and 9/16 pitch diameter. It specifies brass in the article, but the bevel gear already fitted is steel. The lady at reeves said they supplied steel ones.

I will see if I can attach a picture

Thanks for reply.

I have to say that I do not have the means / experience to make, hence the request.

If the considered opinion was pay the money and buy from Reeves then I would happily do so.

Perhaps a wanted ad on here might be worth trying.

Reeves governor gears are £52 for the pair.

I only need the lower one so would appreciate knowing if anybody could recommend where I could get one machined please?

Thanks.

Back to the question.

I seem to recall that a list of people able to provide this service was going to be published on here in Januarym but cannot find the post.

A list would be good as I am looking to commission the engine unit for the Caradoc steam tractor if anybody can help.

Thanks.

Stuart

Edited -- I have jst been messaged to say that John Haining used the engine from his Suffolk Dredging Engine in Caradoc. Thank you.
