I've ordered the Eva May booklet from Tee which should arrive this week (hopefully!) so I'll be able to tell you if there are any drawings. I would think there...
Hi John Thanks for the reply. Had looked at Speedyette but the tapered boiler puts me off building that. As for 2537 think it might be a bit much for a first...
I would not suggest the GWR saddle tank, a very pretty project but only half written up. The copy was lost in an air raid, so it was finished with a terribly...
How about Toby - simple to build, full set of instructions and plans available from the association and castings all available. I like the design, just can't...
The Eva May booklet arrived this morning. The drawings are there but some of the dimensions are a bit difficult to read! They are usable though. As with all...
Hi John Thanks for letting me know about the "Eva May" booklet having the drawings etc. So the next question is do you think there is enough information for...

Dear Ron, Thanks for the email and glad to hear from you again. Sorry I didn't make myself very clear in my previous email to you. The plans and instructions...
Hey, if all these drawings are in some Association book or site, where does one sign up? I have the Tich book (and a 3/4 completed Tich) and an LBSC Virginia...
Hi John Hope you don't mind me emailing direct. Thanks for the last comments I'm at the point of ordering the Eva May booklet but yet another couple of...
Ron, I tried to reply direct but the email bounced. Herewith the contents: Dear Ron, £50 - £70 Yikes! Have a look at this item on ebay: 250066795813 the last...
Personally I would not get too hung up on the Tich book. The one written for Rob Roy is a better or at least easier an easier read. Again, the Martin Evans...
Hi David, I use CAD all the time for loco drawings etc. The drawings for my Helen Longish have all been drawn this way and hopefully will be available later in...

I am looking for a Chimney for a dyak and a tender for a dyak. Also I am looking for some Driving wheels (6) for an Olympiade. Can any one help. Thanks Will....
Most of the books I've seen on CAD tend to refer to various versions of AutoCAD, which (as I use TurboCAD V9) haven't been that useful. However an hour or two...
David, I think the methods of creating CAD files will vary from package to package. and what you could read in general books will not tell you what you want to...
David Wearing my SCISS Ltd hat to answer this. We are Abrasive waterjet profile cutters and cut a fair amount of model engineering parts. Our preferred format...
Hi David, plenty of activity in my workshop! Completed the boiler for Helen Longish last weekend and done a successful hydraulic test to 180psi. Had to cure a...
Hi, Have been playing with boilers but the central heating variety! Hope to get back to the steam ones very shortly, domestic authorities not withstanding. New...
Hello David, I am new to this list, but I posted some photos of a Bassett - Lowke Gauge 3 model of an NER 4-4-0 that I bought as a box of disconnected pieces...
