Hi all ,have been plodding along with rudys steam tractor,but when l got to doing the horn plates l find the 1/32" plate he used is just to thin,did others on here find that ,so l have used 3mm plate and will adjust the plans to suit ,l can under stand using the thin sheet for the fire box wrapper that fits around the boiler casing ,but the rest of it l will upgrade l think,while on the subject of rudys drawings for the boiler ,a mate of mine had a look at the drawing for the boiler an then went an made a boiler of that type for his 1 1/2" scale traction engine he gets about 20 mins running time from it using butane ,makes me wonder about make rudys tractor in that scale after l have finished this one , you all keep safe out there.
