This photo shows the castings that I have finally got printed on the resin printer, ready for the Craven Slaughter Goods model.
This shows for the Loco:

Chimney - Stroudley style
Dome
Safety Valve - original style
Safety Valve - boxed in style
Whistle
Springs - early
Springs - late
Buffers
Clack Valves
Smokebox side lubricator - small
Smokebox side lubricator - long
Safety Valve Spring columns
Smokebox Door
Smokebox door dart
Cylinder Cover Plate/frames
Sandboxes on footplate
Pipework unions after clack valves
Injector pipework 4 way union ashpan side
Outside Cranks
Splashers
Smokebox unit
Firebox unit
Buffer beam
Reversing lever/unit
Smokebox damper control
Regulator
Boiler level sight glass
and for the tender:

Springs - early

Axleboxes
Wooden brake blocks
Buffers
Brake handle
Water filler
Tank Top Tool boxes
Sandbox lids

It has taken me far longer to draw all these and then get them printed on the 3D printer with a resolution of 0.002mm so I may not have a finished demonstration model at the AGM.

Hi Ian.
Looking good so far. Just one question. Are the outside crank's strong enough in this plastic ?

See you saturday.

Cheers.
