I am building a 12" Southworth pump for my steam launch. I intend fitting automatic drain cocks to it. Does anyone have a sketch or drawing for anything suitable? ME Vol. 207 No. 4409 has a description by Ted Holloway on machining them. Unfortunately this was published without any accompanying sketch. Does anyone have contact details for Ted? Tony Wright.

Anthony,

Sorry PM means Personal Message which is only seen by the recipent.

To send a PM you click on 'Message Member' at the bottom of my post (you need to be logged in to see this) and type in your message.

As I am not sure how add attachment to PMs (or that if you can), it is easier for me to send the drawing via regular email.

Regards Luigi
