First completed steam set

(1/3) > >>

John Rudd:
My kids decided to buy me a steam engine for one of my birthdays.....About 4 years ago..
I finally got round to finishing it today....Last job, rivet the boiler bands on....

Here it is all finished, needs a good polish now...

And.....dont mock, I know its a classroom model, but they didnt know what they were buying me.... :Doh:

RobWilson:
Nothing to mock John ,  :thumbup: 


Beats the hell out of getting socks as a present     :palm:   I very nearly bought a similar engine  kit wile perusing the Deutsches museum gift shop  , anyway it  looks like  fun putting that kit together.  :dremel: 

When is the grand steaming ?


Rob

SwarfnStuff:
Gotta agree with Rob, WAY better than sox n jocks.  :lol:
   Now, out with your favourite metal polish and apply some bling.
     We await the initial steaming run.

John Rudd:
Ok, I fired it up and it runs well..A few teething issues but nothing that cant be fixed.
Still waiting for photobucket to approve the video... :scratch: How long does it take to vet a 30 sec video? :Doh:

Well - if instead of "A Steam Set" you titled you video "A Steamy Set" I can imagine they'd pass it round them all for a look first!
