Bulwell Hall Posted February 22 Share Posted February 22 16 hours ago, 1466 said: My 3d printed body of a curved frame Bulldog arrived today . Captain Kernow commented that they are in the first rank of 3 d manufacturers and I agree . Ive struggled to add photos but will try again . I think that my example is well detailed and exquisite . I have no interest or connection with the manufacturer except as a contented customer . That looks very nice indeed! Very well proportioned and delicately detailed. Perhaps I could mention just one thing - 2021 class 0-6-0 pannier tank? Gerry 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have to avoid work until this evening, but I intend to see the lights and lamp working (using the controller you sold me all those years ago 🤣). Well if you're asking @Tim Dubya can you flip it up over and take a few shots of the delicious underframe/bogies as I have a penchant for this kind of detail.😉 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

While it has yet to be fitted with number plates, and until I can buy some handrail knobs I cant fit the boiler handrails, I am really pleased with it after a coat of paint. I have reused the buffer heads and smokebox bits off the Dukedog body. Tender is also not properly attached while I wait on the boiler handrails. Highly recomended! 11 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I must say the undergubbins are delightful, with a wire thingy (pull rod) that returns one's bogies to the straight position. It wasn't until I flipped her belly up did I realise that there were contacts on the bogie and thus lighting. Only an hour to go at work (less if I fall asleep).

RMweb Premium Tim Dubya Posted February 22 RMweb Premium Share Posted February 22 (edited) I just can't get any decent light and therefore a good shot of it I'm afraid.
