Hi
Mt father in law is over from Oz and has just completed his 7 1/4 gauge locomotive and is looking for boiler mounting / fittings - can you point us in the right direction?
Many thanks

Can you add a rough location to your profile so we don't waste time giving US suppliers if you are in teh UK etc.

What exactly is he looking for? Sight glass, injectors, pumps, valves, that sort of thing? Ready-made or to-be-machined? Thread (MTP, straight, etc.)? Some of the links from my bookmarks are below, that might get him started.
