Clarkson Horizontal redefined in Metric

(1/2) > >>

Jasonb:
Having felt for a long time that anyone looking for their first casting kit will get lead down the imperial route even though it may not be familiar to them I decided to redraw the Clarkson 1″ x 1.5″ Horizontal in metric and while I was about it sort out the few anomalies and missing details that the original drawings suffer from.

An updated metric drawing set should soon be available from Blackgates, the castings are available now. It’s not a bad buy when compared to a similar size Stuart No 8 and the cost of materials and fixings is still not going to bring the cost up to that of the Stuart. Build should be in ME at some time in the hopefully not too distant future.

Well done!   :ThumbsUp: :ThumbsUp:     






(not sure where I can  find metric steam on this side of the pond, though!) 

Kim:
Cute little engine, Jason!  :ThumbsUp: :popcorn:
The colors came out nicely on it.

You did a great job with the steam engine. I can well imagine building a set of castings in metric dimensions.

Greetings Michael
