Im not sure if this is the correct place to put this ( if not could mods please move to correct place please)
I bought my first lathe a few months back as im getting close to retirement and have always wanted to build
my own steam locos.
this is the lathe I bought from a local supplyer
I have started building a loco from Brian Willsons book Steam trains in your Garden.
so far I have made some of the parts as im slowly learning tou use the lathe
Axels
Boiler
the frame assembled
I bought the frame from a supplyer who lasercuts them much easier for me
and also a gas burner for one of my mamod locos
I have also mad 3 of the 4 wheels and will post pictures when ive finished
cheers Graham
this is my progress so far
