3" Burrell Traction Engine build.

To Build 2 or Not to Build Well, I initially thought whilst I was building 1 why not build 2 and sell the second to fund the boiler, especially as the time to machine 1 part is often not double to make a second. But financials dictate that the 2nd could be sold the speed the build-up of just 1. Here is the progress to date side by side comparison. After lock-down, I might put the lesser finished Burrell on a popular web site to see if there is any interest. Current progress....!
