AOG Version of the Liney Thimble Completed

This was probably my shortest build ever. It took some tweaking but she's a runner. Here are some pics.







Here she is running



Thanks for watching

Congrats Tony....it's a runner for sure. Yours is a bit fancier than mine, buts it's still a  favorite to pull down off the shelf at times and give it a run. Now that you have had this little breather...what's next on your list :)

Thanks, I'm tossing around the idea of an Elmers beam engine for my next project. I'm a little nervous about the fabrication and decorative turning but I might give it try.

Thanks everyone. Bill, I've ordered the material for the beam engine. Hopefully I'll get that this week and I can get started.

Tony
