millimetre1067 Posted June 13, 2020 Share Posted June 13, 2020 Looking for some suggestions for a gearbox or worm & gear combination for a scratchbuild. I’m building a ‘Colonial mogul’ (2-6-0), not the first I’ve done, but in the past I’ve used a Roco gear and worm. I can still get the worm, but the gear appears to no longer be available. The loco is HO scale, but running on 10.5mm gauge track (HOn3). The drivers are 11mm diameter with a 2mm axle. Seeing as as there are some amazing models produced and displayed here, I was hoping someone could point me in the direction of a supplier that could assist. Couple of photos attached of my previous builds. Thanks, Adrian 1 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Gold Bucoops Posted June 13, 2020 RMweb Gold Share Posted June 13, 2020 I would definitely recommend High Level - http://www.highlevelkits.co.uk/pricespage.html Axle diameters in 2mm, 3mm and 1.8". Just for good measure, the gearboxes are really really good too. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
