Nice work Christopher.......I often find that other scale model equipment is useful for my model building projects as well. Rick H.

Your so right Rick...especially when something like a medium sized horizontal boiler is hard to find

This little kit from Ratio Models has so many great details that I still need to install

Firstly Christopher welcome to the forum.
Coupled with some great photos your model is superb in every way . Love the attention to detail following the photos of the real machine shop, great work .
Shall follow this with interest.

AN Christopher these scences that you have built here really remind me of the factory where i first worked at when i was 15yrs old just left school an the open pit as one day a mate came an pinched part of my mig welder that i was usein

as he was messin about an i was in a hurry to weld some door keeps on the frame of a big fridge van as i was reworkin it an i shot after him to get the part back an fell into the pit like you have here an i heard a sharp crack when i fell into the pit an i was helped out by the guys an the pain then hit an i went to undo my steel toecap boots an the foreman came running up screamin dont take your boot off but too late an i could not belive it as my anke blew up like a monster in size as i found out later in hospital that i had toren all my ligaments in my ankle an i was in plaster for nr 4 months but when i went back to work i was bloomin carefull of them pits then but thats what your scene in your model here reminds me of so to very real

Sorry to bring up bad memories...what happened to your mate? Not to get off topic but have you been to the Tank Museum in Bovington? I was suppose to go there last year but COVID hit the UK bad and my flight was cancelled . Hope to go next year.
