A Garratt In Miniature. Monthly Archives: November 2012. Progress has stalled…. On November 21, 2012. Just to update followers to this blog on the state of the 16! Simply put, we bought a new house last month and are in the middle of gutting and rebuilding it. My other half seems to think that this is more important than building a new workshop…. But, I’m not going to win🙂. So, house first, workshop second! Next year will see the loco progress once again, but in a new home. Join 25 other followers.

July Update | NGG16.com
https://ngg16.wordpress.com/2011/07/26/july-update
A Garratt In Miniature. On July 26, 2011. All drivers are now bored, with a start made on shaping them. It’s pushing the boundaries of my lathe, but they are coming together. 9 down, 3 to go! As you can see from above, 9 of the wheels are faced and bored both sides, leaving the tread and wheel webs to cut on the faceplate…. More than likely, there will be no update next month, as I’m off to the US of A for a long earned break! Normal service will resume in September! Larr; June Update.

A Garratt In Miniature. On October 26, 2011. Work on the Garratt has ground to a hold at the moment, as a few real life things have cropped up. Nothing life threatning thankfully, but a bit more important than model engineering! Fingers crossed, I’ll be back to it soon…. Larr; Release Valves Part 2. November Update →. One response to “.

A Garratt In Miniature. On January 27, 2012. After the Christmas break (And a family wedding! This is the pony truck centering and drag beam/coupling assembly out of the frames…. This front shot shows the start made on the cow catcher assembly. Top and bottom beams are done, leaving only the vertical bars to be inserted between the two. These will be constructed from 10mm steel tube…. A similar view to above, but without the lower cow catcher assembly…. Larr; December Update. Hunslet work first →.

Release Valves in 3D! | NGG16.com
https://ngg16.wordpress.com/2011/08/03/release-valves-in-3d
A Garratt In Miniature. Release Valves in 3D! On August 3, 2011. Many moons ago, I used to build locos for Microsoft Train Simulator. Like everything, this was put to one side some years ago and things have gone from virtual to real! During that time, I used a program called 3D Canvas (Now called 3D Crafter) to build these locos. I thought that I would never use it again, but 3D Crafter is getting some use once again! I’ve sent the model off to the 3D printers and I’ll wait to see the results! You are co...

A Garratt In Miniature. Release Valves Part 2. On August 28, 2011. I’m back from the great American Roadtrip and barely made it back before they closed the airports because of Irene! Anyway, a parcel was waiting when I got back and the results speak for themselves…. Larr; Release Valves in 3D! Brief update →. 2 responses to “. Release Valves Part 2. October 4, 2011 at 3:44 pm. Please excuse my ignorance, what is the purpose of the release valves? November 11, 2011 at 8:19 pm. Leave a Reply Cancel reply.

Hunslet work first | NGG16.com
https://ngg16.wordpress.com/2012/02/24/hunslet-work-first
A Garratt In Miniature. On February 24, 2012. With my resident model engineering society on the move this year, the likelyhood of my old hunslet getting a fair few runs, is unlikely. Hence, I’ve made the decision to restore her during the clubs downtime. Basically its a re-pipe, as the water feeds are too small for this size of loco. Bigger injectors all round. This will mean that there will be some downtime on the garratt until work is completed. Larr; January Update. Progress has stalled… →. Would be i...
