Steaming!
Rod was given this magnificent steam engine for his birthday in October from all of the family. The engine (right) arrives in pieces and needs to be built, polished, painted. The boiler (left) arrives complete but needs some polish and paint on it's base. This was the first steaming - very exciting!
I did take a video but was unable to upload...will try again perhaps with a video taken on a phone rather than the camera which might be more successful.
The next challenge is to make something which can be driven by the engine. Watch this space.
HTT!
