Hi

The topic of hydrostatic lubrication must have been covered in the magazine at some point: so what I wont is a drawing of a double site glass valve that allows the oil to be fed to both cylinders independantly as I'm planning on fitting hydrostatic lubrication to 5" crab that I'm building.

I would be very grateful if someone could point me in the direction of a drawing.

Cheers

Stew

Hi Stew,

The only time Don Young described with drawings the sight glasses for his hydrostatic displacement lubricators was in his series on 'George', his version in 3.5"g of the original Ffestiniog locos. It is a twin glass design, as you require.

If you PM me with your details I can email you the drawings and construction notes, plus a few hints and tips.

Cheers,

Julian
