3 hours in the workshop this morning has seen progress on the chassis,
First the missing pipe was added to the valance, so the body is now finished.
Onto the chassis, I don’t like the cast metal pony truck, but as I have nothing better I have made do. I have improved it by fitting brass bearings before soldering together.
Next was the bogie mount, first filing a gulag surface onto the top and bottom of the brass bar spacer, then drilling a2mm hole
Finally the brakes were soldered into position along with the linkages. The chassis is now ready for paint,
The next job will be the tender, the clyinders can wait until the chassis is painted
