Well it finally happened, Quinn retired from a very demanding job in research, I doubt he has all that much more under-utilized time, but perhaps he’s found a few more hours a month for his hobbies? Quinn’s amazing series starts here, with part one, part two is written, and will be posted next week.
‘Beta Tester Part 1 REVISED 01_10_2015 MEDIUM
Thanks for sharing Quinn

Excellent write-up and the pics make it even better!

George, thank you for taking the time to post the revised Beta Test articles. The Listeroid community is still chugging along, and a lot of newcomers have been asking questions that were covered in the original reports I wrote to you and Joel. Part 3 is in the works and will cover gib key fitting and a number of other subjects that time didn’t allow me to get into earlier.

Quinn, thanks for your contribution, it’s wonderful that you made time to share your work. I note Russ’ comment about the folded paper gasket. The first time I saw it, I wondered, could that have been done by mistake? I’m excited to share your Part 3, thanks for all you do for DIY.
Jerry, Quinn is a guy you’d enjoy meeting, fact is, if we all met up, it’s likely we wouldn’t part till the wee hours.
Fascinating stuff. I’m just in the process of enquiring about buying a 6/1 from the Australians, since I live nearby-ish in New Zealand. This is great insight into what will be required for a reliable prime mover. I will read other posts from these two fellows with interest. Thanks
