Norden: Building a Working Model Victorian Steam Engine: A Workshop Handbook for Model Engineers

One of the attractions of model engineering is the opportunity to makes a model of something that no-one has tackled before. Some old engravings have almost every detail in them, but it is possible to make a feasible reconstruction of a model from even the most basic of information. There is no magic formula required, just model engineerâ€™s ingenuity and perhaps an ability to â€˜think in scaleâ€™. This is the story of how the author went about recreating a â€˜lostâ€™ steam engine. Based on a sketch and letter from a 1947 issue of Model Engineer the book includes copious photographs, plans and full build notes, as well as a source for castings. The model is relatively small in size, and i therefore suitable for owners of Myford ML7 or Super 7 lathes or 7 x14 and similar imported Mini Lathes.
