I know what you mean about old iron, I played with the shaper for a couple hours today since I have it running on OG&E now.
but I did get in a little bit of work on the oilers also
the first photo is of the bronze rods that I poured yesterday, I borrowed a slitting saw and after turning one of them round I cut a slot in two pieces to use to make the little lifter handle for the valve rods.

The second if of the second piece that I need for the sight glass, I made one last night and put a round viewing hole in it. The original has an oblong hole, as you can see from the one on the left in the photo I screwed up the one i did tonight, anyway I'm going to use it for now.
