sej Posted August 28, 2017 Share Posted August 28, 2017 That's great Steph, thanks for the information, I shall wait patiently for an A12! Before then I have a T3 to look forward to in the "to build" cupboard. Cheers Simon Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

dikitriki Posted August 31, 2017 Author Share Posted August 31, 2017 Hi, I've fitted the boiler to the footplate, formed and fitted the transverse water tube covers - they were a bit of a faff with all the various curves and planes - and added some smokebox front details: Cab interior and roof before Telford....hopefully.

Horsetan Posted August 31, 2017 Share Posted August 31, 2017 The quality of the soldering is superb! What tools do you use? Soldering iron / resistance soldering station? Solder types? It almost seems like invisible soldering. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
N15class Posted August 31, 2017 Share Posted August 31, 2017 Cross water tubed a bit early for me, but what an elegant loco. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steph Dale Posted August 31, 2017 Share Posted August 31, 2017 Cross water tubed a bit early for me, but what an elegant loco. Don't worry Peter! I model the early fifties so, one way or another, we'll cover the later options. Steph 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
dikitriki Posted September 1, 2017 Author Share Posted September 1, 2017 (edited) Hi, I've gone as far as I want before Telford, and I'm very pleased with progress. It will be on the Finney7 stand at Telford if you wish to have a closer look. See you there! Richard Edited September 1, 2017 by dikitriki 5 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
N15class Posted September 1, 2017 Share Posted September 1, 2017 It looks good from here, bet it's really good in person. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lovstrom Posted September 1, 2017 Share Posted September 1, 2017 (edited) I really appreciate seeing a test build like this. Even if I am not interested in this particular railway I am interested in the Princess and an A3 when they come out. Good job Finney7 And I always enjoy your builds Dikitriki Sven Edited September 1, 2017 by Lovstrom 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grasshopper John Posted September 4, 2017 Share Posted September 4, 2017 It looks good from here, bet it's really good in person. Saw It at Telford Peter,it's beautiful, even had chance to speak to the man himself, Also had the chance to admire Mickoo's fantastic work but didn't get chance to meet him everything just had that 'shear quality' look about it. 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
