looks good, I only fitted the crosshead and slidebar set to Gwydion, but each to his own and the full set looks just as good and a big improvement on just the cylinder rod

well lets just say I no longer have to introduce myself when I phone them up :lol:

Iv also that the horrid RC removed and they stripped Torak totally down because I thought the eccentrics had become a little to worn.

Only a little bit??

It would be a waste of money to have them replaced if the old ones still work.

I was having trouble getting torak to go backwards and they said they might be worn so I had them check for me nad they werent worn.
