TOPIC: Boilers from scratch in styrene
Boilers from scratch in styrene 8 years 6 months ago #4860
|
As a bit of an experiment I taped my clinic at the Reading Railroad Modeler's Meet which was also the first clinic I have ever done, but here it is. The lazer pointer I had is a little hard to see but it is there. Keep in mind this isn't a clinic on building a specific engine more of an overview of the general technique on making boiler tubes and putting the firebox on, which is why I shied away from specific measurements for the most part since there are not too many engines that are exactly the same.
Here are the slides in the video as well.                                           |
