My primary focus is locomotives, and I have projects in Ga1 and
7.5"ga under way and a waiting project each in 3.5" and 5"ga. The Ga1
project is a SECR D-class 4-4-0 and the 7.5" project is a 2X Tich. The
3.5"ga project is an O.S. Mogul which was bought in bits in a basket and
will be completely rebuilt and re-detailed to better standard; the 5"ga is
an LBSC Maid of Kent which was bought as a rolling chassis, with boiler,
and the castings to complete. The chassis is to a superb standard and will
support any level of detailing and finish I care to lavish on it but the
boiler was a piece of trash and will be bandsawed in half.
My secondary focus is stationary engines, both marine and mill, and I
have several sets of castings "normalizing" under the bench to be done
after my locomotive phase passes. I also make workshop tools as they
become needed and as I'm able, with a set of revised Geo Thomas bending
rolls near completion. I occasionally build copper boilers for beer and
castings money.
