I bought with no boiler History and part dismantled with many bits missing, the bits missing are no problem to re make, its the boiler that will decide if its a re-furb or a scrap weigh in. So my Scratch built Metre Maid version of this that i built 3 years ago, will have to wait to see if it has a mate!!!
This Sweet Pea looks like a very early one made from the book by Jack Buckler, the deisigner of the Loco back in the 1970's
Since buying i got the certificate see previous parts for that journey
thanks for joining me on the building of a steam locomotive journey

Hi Kev. The engine looks more and more beautiful as you progress. I love the contrast between the cast iron, the steel and the brass. It is almost a shame to hide it all behind paint. Here’s to the next episode. Good luck. 👏👏👍😀
Cheers Andrew
Paint!! What paint!!!🤣🤣🤣🤣👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
See Ya Next Time

Great progress Kev. Sweet Pea is a lovely little engine, can't wait to see her in steam.
You and me both! Dave

But not in a great hurry as i still have my Metre Maid to use, this is taking me longer than expected because i have multi tandem projects on the go!!🤣👍👍🚂🚂 Never a dull moment, and never bored!!👍👍👍

@@MrFactotum I know what you mean Kev I'm designing parts for the Britannia brake system when I haven't fitted the suspension yet! 🤣 It's the reason Model Engineers stay mentally active longer than most folks in old age 😊

Hi Kev, its looking good. You don't often see those scribing calipers these days.
All the best!!
cheers David
Odd Leg Calipers👍👍
I'm mainly old school technology, if they were good enough back in the day they are good enough for me now, can't see the point in re-inventing the wheel
+ less clutter in the workshop and less spending money on bees knees equipment
Sorry David, went off on one there🤣🤣🤣😉😉
Thanks very much for the feedback
always appreciate your comments
see you next time
