Who doesn't like a good old fashioned "test" of the math! I'll see what I can do.

Howdy there, another new guy here Dan from Western Canada would like to say Hello to everyone and maybe get some info from people much more experienced than I. Interested in mini machining for a long time but had to work for a bunch of years, now retired and bought a little Sherline 4000 lathe and have acquired a milling attachment and various other goodies for it..I have been woodworking for years but now get to play with something different. Primarily interested in model steam and have built a couple, little wobbler of course and a little vertical open column launch engine both of which look ok and actually run pretty well much to my surprise..
Now to the point of all this I wanted something a little more challenging and decided on Elmers Slider, chapter 6. I've made a start on the thing but am having trouble visualizing how the cylinder and valve chest look and are built. Pictures I have are pretty poor quality and I need more experience to visualize these things from the drawings some of which are also poor reproductions. I'm sure there have been lots of these things built and am hoping someone could send some better pictures and build tips...
Thanks in advance and looking forward to any response..Dan
