the drawings and engravings were done by the magazine and not the builders, the engravings being an artists interpretation of the above photo while i guess that the drawings were either copied from the originals or measured from the product, i doubt anybody has the original drawings. without any other photos its at least better than nothing, good luck ive also got some future projects based on Engineer drawings and it a pain having guess so much from what the drawing left out

"some inconsistencies between the various illustrations"
yes, thats quite common with Engineer and Engineering drawings, information missing or it doesnt add up

its the sheer variety of stock and locos compared to standard gauge that does it for a lot of people

patience is the hardest thing to learn, the urge for progress over method, i am a long sufferer of broken knives due to inpatience. take your time with the cutting, dont push too hard and do as many cuts as is needed.
your first attempt looks great

very nice thread, but a warning, you must be signed in to view anything on NGRM

have tapered legs so their wider at the bottom than the top, so leave the C stretchers and just do the B stretchers giving better stability, although having tapered A frames would make it very awkward to "tetris" it into the car with everything else
