Kennions drawings

[DalboyParticipant @dalboy]

Can anyone tell me whether Kennions "Rob Roy" and "Suzanne" are in metric or imperial. I do have these sets of drawing but I ordered them as a Christmas present for myself and the wife has hidden them until Christmas day, I did tell her she is a spoil sport

I do however suspect that Rob Roy is imperial

I think Suzanne is probably metric as it was designed in metric. The opposite for Rob Roy for the same reasons. However I'm afraid a guess is all I can offer.

The set of Rob Roy drawings I had 20 years ago were imperial, I don't know if they've been redrawn since.

Thank you Jon and Bob

Be careful of the Rob Roy drawings Derek, the earliest ones only show a clack bush on one side of the boiler. Hopefully more recent drawings include the second bush for the hand pump.

Will look out for it the set I have says it has the Martin Evans update sheet with it but will not know until I can have them

Rob Roy Drawings are Imperial and show two boiler clack bush positions.

One each side. Martin Evans improvements drawing included.

Suzanne Drawings are Metric including the alternative valve gear drive drawing done earlier this year
