This post continues/concludes the story of manufacturing a new crank for Befur from the last post.
Here we can see the re-assembled engine with new crank. We are still to install all the ancillaries (reversing gear, lubrication, condenser and feed/air pump & alternator drive.)
It took 6-man days from receiving the crank back from the grinders to reach this stage.
Once we have tested it on air, we will reinstall it on the boat and undertake this year’s boiler test and check all is as it should be.
