That looks awesome!! I'm surprised that boiler fit on there so well.
I've ground and filed off the details of a few cast metal MDC boilers before - and it's a huge pain that I am not sure if it is worth it. You gain a nice heavy boiler, but sometimes I wonder if it would be easier to just scratch a new one out of plastic.
And those rivet decals are an awesome product, that makes these kind of projects a whole lot easier.
