O&K in 009: Narrow Planet kit nearly ready...
The O&K 40hp steam locomotive I have designed for Narrow Planet to fit on the Minitrains Stainz chassis is nearly ready...
Here you can see the revised 3D body print compared with the prototype. This has the dome added and the smokebox and front buffer beam proportions adjusted. I have also added the rear frame extensions and spring detail. To add to this I have designed some etched components. I must say that iMaterialise printed the second body in a different orientation to the first, and the layering is much more noticeable so we're going to ask them to change this on the final prototype.
More soon...
