Hi all,
Question, can the cylinder be attached to the boiler without any cylinder fittings, or is it best to wait until I have the fittings?

Can be fitted without. As you need the block on to get the weighshaft lined up.
On crystal I did the block then fitted everything to it. Otherwise it was way toooooooo heavy.
