Axle sets nearly done !!

This photo shows the fruits of July and August's labours - 2 sets of wheels. hey're not quite done (the front sets only have one flycrank each fitted, and the cranks need pinning) but I think they're about 90% done. I have also bored all the coupling and connecting rod holes ready for the bearings.

Update

Haven't had much time to keep this updated recently, apologies for that. Anyway, since my last update, I have made the 4 slider blocks for the valve gear, complete with their cheeks and die rollers. I have made and fitted the crankpins to the flycranks. I have made the first two axles, and pressed the wheels on them. As soon as the loctite is set, I shall put the bearings on them and then press on the flycranks as well. I have also drilled the second set of buffer beams. I have purchased two lubricators, and a second set of gauge glass fittings. I also found a nice looking whistle on ebay, for the second engine. So, quite a bit done these past few weeks.
