One of the nice things about this job is that the part is finished ready to sit on the loco rather than to be used as a casting pattern, which means that I can make the top lip and flange a little finer. Its also hollow as Ben didn't want a locating peg underneath.
I'm quite pleased with this, and I'm looking forward to seeing it fitted.
Paul.
Lovely work - the flange at the base is particularly impressive.
ReplyDeleteThanks Steve. Filing the flange is gentle, patient work. Good light and a headband magnifier are essential, along with decent files and fine emery cloth.
