DESCRIPTION

Hello Friends,

I've finished my centrifugal "flyball" governor for my Steam Engine project. I was unable to find acceptable plans for a governor so I designed my own based on several old sketches and some photos I found online.

This governor can be scaled and or modified to work with just about any type of steam engine. Hope some of you GrabCad users get some additional use from it.

I've uploaded my original Solidworks 2014 part file plus several other formats.

As always, the renders look best if downloaded in full hi-res, 2560 x 1440. =)
