[modeleng] Re: Drawings for Scamp

Hi there Philip,

If it's of any use in spurring you on, this is what a finished one should 
look like...

http://www.stationroadsteam.co.uk/stock%20pages/2566/index.htm

According to the Engineering in Miniature index on page...

http://www.colinusher.info/Indexes/eimindex.html

...there are the following entries by someone who's surname is Malcolm 
(see below, after my sign off), they look to span volumes 5, 6, and 7.

One thing to watch for if you do go down this route - the proper plans may 
well have some of the mistakes in the articles corrected.

To clarify, I would suspect that the full plans are in the articles.

If no-one out there has a copy they can help you with, you could always 
try ebay to see if anyone is selling the relevant volumes, though I would 
guess you'd be talking about 20 pounds if you go down that route, once you 
have added in postage and packaging.


Yours,


Rich.
