Not much progress today, but mostly on the n check for the tender wheels and the structure.
As the first step, made a mockup of the wheel structure and did the fit check. No conflict/interference found. Next, tried to check the wheel to wheel distance. First, calculated the distance between tender wheels (based on original plan) and fount it around 59mm. To make sure, I pulled the locomotive and measure the wheel distance and found it around … 54~55mm (I would say… 54.5mm) 54.5 vs 59mm Don’t know what is the right number for the gap for 1/25 model, but it seems I need to go with 54.5mm to match that of Locomotive. Good learning. |

What might have caused the cap difference? Design fault? Anyway your loco is done and determinites the gauge of the tender, right? I've enjoyed this thread very much. Thanks Joon.

Hi Michael, David and Tappi,
Thanks for comments. Fully agree, it is already determined by the locomotive Tender wheel prototype Done Looks good. Will need to make many more |

Thanks a lot, RifleMan !
Attached the paper pipe between wheels (ID 3mm OD 6mm Length 48.5mm) Painted the pipe, added metallic enamel (humbrol 27003), polished (cotton polisher) and finally remove the masking tape to reveal the white band. Wheels ready |
