I am still in the workshop

The governor parts pile has some more parts added to it all small parts but seem to take ages to do even if they are simple still some more to make. I have not yet soldered any parts as there are a few more that need hardening so will do the soldering and hardening all at the same time weather permitting as it is raining here.
The brass pins with the thread on the left are 1/8" diameter to give an indication of size the split pins that will be used on the silver steel pins are 1/32" to fit in the tiny holes

I have managed to do some more between having to buy and set up a new compter as well as getting the car passed a MOT.
Any way a few more parts some for the Govenor assembly and some for the exhaust valve assembly.
Govenor partts
Exhaust push rod assembly
The govenor assembly operates the exhaust assembly once all completed as well as the ignition system.
A general view of both assemblies some need to be silver soldere together I will ddo them in a batch that is why they are still in pieces to give an idea of sizze the two brass balls are 5/8" dianeter
The box is slowly filling up with parts this stops bits from going missing while working on other parts
