Hello All,
I was very sick for 2 weeks now and on the road to healing .
The amount of the work at the office was off the charts so I had to let go for a while
Today I found something interesting ,old news for some members but worth the time

Hello All,
After a long time I exercise a bit the muscle and made some liitle work on my model.
Have lost 15 kg from muscle and now I work little bits only.
I did the motor support from aluminium
Also the electronic regulator need some air to function proprely so I did a air tunnel from first cabin to last cabin.
For the steam engine I will use a piece of wood for cilinder casing and will see what to do next .
Advices required .
Kind regards,Daniel

Hello Daniel. I am glad you are ok and continue your build.

If you do Google picture search with words "compound steam engine" you get a lot of pictures of engines where you can see the crankshaft and connecting rods and how do they look like.

When I was building my Marcher engine, I turned the crankshaft from one solid piece of steel, but for this kind of engine which does not work with steam, it is possible to fabricate crankshaft of pieces of steel rod & stock material by gluing parts together.
 
Hello Moxis ,Glad to see your reply!
I think you finished your steam launch by now.
I still have to see some plans for pieces
Because it will not move some pieces I can made from plastic and paint them metalic colours.
Kind regards and health to all
Daniel

Not yet finished. I am struggling with internal planking of mahogany strips, benches and floor panels. There is no hurry, so I am working a bit slower than earlier.

Hello Moxis
Slow is good , less mistakes in my case! :)
I had rethinked some details in my model and eliminated the open doors
recut some pieces
Now is easier

Hello Moxis ,
Do you still have the drawings of marcher steam engine? I watched the tread and the parts under cilinders can be made in same way only a bit shorter.
If you can ,send me the photos of the drawings as perpendicular you can and I will work them in autocad for my fake engine
Kind regards,Daniel
