The construction series, Mariner continues as Chris Walter describes the reversing lever stand and goes on to make the weighshaft. Ian Couchman makes crankshafts and bearings for the 3 inch scale threshing drum - but there’s nothing simple about them! George Punter provides further drawings for the tractor engine and Robert Hobbs looks at making tender chassis parts and brake linkages.
There’s more from the eminently readable Ron Wright as he teaches us about the mechanics of the epicycle gear train.
Harprit Sandhu shows a novice how to make a useful, time saving attachment for the lathe in the form of a mini-vice for a quick change toolpost and Les Philips makes a neat, compact little valve for various applications in the cab of a fine scale locomotive.
Events are covered too! LittleLEC was enjoyed by a good turnout of engines at the South Cheshire Club’s Peacock track near Crewe - we bring you a report and the results table. The locomotives section of the MEX is covered as we look at the Gold Medal winners both here and in the Ships and Marine Models sections.
Never a dull moment!
