davidbr Posted November 26, 2014 Share Posted November 26, 2014 For a particular job, I am looking for an etch of the valve gear for a steam railmotor, preferably with the cylinder casting. If anyone has one they could sell to me, I shall be very grateful. Alternatively, I could make the valve gear for someone's model (foc). I have made this valve gear before and an image is attached. Please contact me by PM. David Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

twiggy1969 Posted November 27, 2014 Share Posted November 27, 2014 He's not got any etches as I have asked a few times now as I'm after the same Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
davidbr Posted November 27, 2014 Author Share Posted November 27, 2014 Yes, it is the Mallard. I have already been in touch with Coopercraft which is why I am making this appeal. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Gold k22009 Posted December 12, 2017 RMweb Gold Share Posted December 12, 2017 If anyone still needs the Mallard valve gear etch i have just been sorting through my bits and pieces and found one in excellent condition. PM me if you do i can send a photo then with a few dimensions to confirm its the correct one. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Premium NCB Posted December 12, 2017 RMweb Premium Share Posted December 12, 2017 Allan Docherty (Worsley Works) does steam railmotor no 93 in 3mm and 4mm (sides, ends, etc). He's currently working on the valve gear in 3mm. Could be worth asking him if he'll do it in 4mm. Nigel 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
davidbr Posted December 14, 2017 Author Share Posted December 14, 2017 A new chassis, including valve gear, is being developed by Jeremy Suter of the Scalefour Society. I have made a test etch for Jeremy and it is very promising. The valve gear has proper forked joints. It is a considerable improvement on the Mallard version. I don't know whether this is viewable unless a S4 member, but there is a thread on it's development here: https://www.scalefour.org/forum/viewtopic.php?f=132&t=5287 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
