Very nice boat and engine set up. Perhaps you could also replace the rubber tubes to the condenser with some copper pipes, just as you used for the steam pipe?

I don't know much about steam but this is a lovely craft to look at. The previous comment seemed a good idea visually.
But what about your helmsman - brilliant - is that jumper knitted - tell me about your man there.

Thank you for your kind comments.

KNO3 I think you are right, copper pipe would look much better, will add that to my final things to do.


Dave Yes the jumper was hand knitted by my good wife, the figure itself came with the kit.

Peter the plant is a Cheddar boiler and gas tank, engine a Anton Jade, gas attenuator from Forrest (seems to work ok)
