Re: Stephenson Valve Gear

[Cgnr]

There are two books published by Dover books that has designs of mechanisms 
made from wood that actually operate.  I looked for it in their store, but 
could not find it readily.  I had the books and lost them in the fire; it did have 
the plans for making a hand cranked steam engine.  They are very nice book, 
as is all of Dover's stuff and well worth getting if you want to build 
something like that.
