Good job!
Will you put a good low pressure gauge on to keep the vaporstat honest?--NBC0 -
Piping looks good, but where's your drip leg on that gas line?

Nice job. FYI, Williamson does not allow the return to be connected to the right side of the boiler. They want the return to be on the same side as the controls. Personally, I don't think that makes any sense. I also think that they do not allow you to use the right hand supply tapping. Same reason. Don't mean to criticize at all . I use the right and left hand tapping all the time. Just thought that you might want to know0

My EG-40 is plumbed the same way as your boiler, with the return in the rear, as I call it, opposite of the gauge glass and I'm using both supplies.

@Paul S .Agreed. Very weird. If anything, would make more sense to have supply on opposite side as LWCO0

Ditto on the hall of fame comments. You get my vote0

A great example that the NBP is part of the steam boiler!
I would almost envision more volume in the piping than the steam chest of the boiler.1 -
