9 forum posts 1 photos	I have a Maximat 7, Emco FB-2 milling and drilling combination machine, and a Cowells lathe. The Maximat and FB-2 were purchased new, still run good after many years of use. The Cowells is 20 years old. I made several Stuart stationary engines, a duplex pump and a boiler. Worked on two 3 1/2 grade locomotives. Currently retired. Now into garden trains. I previously subscribed to Model Engineer for many years. Gerald Pierce

9 forum posts 1 photos	Hello David, I made the Stuart No. 9 engine. The video starts with two photos showing the set up to for boring the bedplate on the FB-2 mill. The third photo is boring the cylinder on Maximat 7 using the Arrand between centres boring bar. Then I have a photo of the finished bedplate and cylinder. The finished engine is shown running on compressed air. Edited By Gerald Pierce on 14/04/2019 15:07:20 Edited By Gerald Pierce on 14/04/2019 15:13:06
