Prices and specifications are those ruling on 1 January 2007 subject to correction of any errors or oversights by me.
So far prices have only been adjusted on Jan 1st of each year.
Before making any payment please enquire first for availability and cost of delivery.
VAT does not apply (not registered)
STOCK LEVELS: For less popular locos usually only one set is kept in stock at a time - and restocked about four times a year.

CAUTION: some live steam designs specify under-sized wheels for extra clearance, such as for the 'Project' tender. Others may have slightly under-sized drivers to allow for over-scale model flanges. Please check before ordering.

These castings are NOT expected to be strong enough to be gripped from the centre only when turning the tread. Castings should be gripped by their shoulders, or in the later stages between discs each side of the tyre. See Turning suggestions
CUTTING TOOLS: lathe tools with replaceable tips having a small tip radius are ideal for most metals - but on cast iron they can produce a hard shiny surface and crumbling at the edges. I have had no problems with sharp pointed (roughing) carbide tipped tools.

SURFACE COLOUR OF CASTINGS CAN VARY - this is mostly due to the choice of grit used in shot blasting
ERRORS: dimensions and instructions on this disc are given in good faith and are thought to be reasonably accurate but they should be checked in case of errors in measuring, typing etc. They are offered for use at your own risk.

The images of the castings are about life size on 17" flat screens set at 1024 x 768 pixels.
They are much the same on 19" screens at 1280 x 1024 pixels.

To view this site as it was written use the Arial, Sans serif font setting with medium text size. (On Windows: tools > internet options > fonts)
Some of the text pages may look a bit narrow on larger screens. They are set at 650 pixels wide for printing out on A4 paper.
