Another assembly has been completed for the K-27 project. While the hand pump may seem out of place after just completing the running gear, it will be used during testing of the boiler which is the next challenging step of the project.
The hand pump assembly is made up of brass and stainless steel parts. A total of 18 parts were machined plus a custom bit to cut the valve seat inside the body. Lots of boring, some slotting and silver soldering of the parts.
