Stratch build toy Steam Roller

<< < (4/4)

BarryG41:
There are no plans as such.  It was originally scaled off a couple of photos of an original.  Also some drawings and dimensions were supplied by the owner of an original.  This  helped considerably, but then found out the original had a 2.25" diameter boiler and I was committed to 2.5"  boiler. So things like this made thing interesting and required  remake of various items. 


 I have made some drawings in dft format so I can reproduce  some of it . After getting it to run I have found  the rear wheels are too big so the  next one they will be 88mm instead of 100mm. The reason this one has 100 mm wheels is  that was the size of stock I could get. But it is too high geared.  The roller was made on mini lathe and mini mill.
