Parts and tooling

Another 3 weeks have passed and very little progress on the loco itself although I now have a lathe set up and am gradually accumlating useful-sized bits of metal for turning. The wife was particularly bemused at the arrival of a length of 2 1/4" diameter pipe (the shortest length i could find was two foot long) which is intended to be cut down and used as a smokebox!

Anyway, lots of bits stacking up to be progressed, just waiting for work to calm down a bit to get some free time to get busy with the lathe!
