2-8-2 - THE BUILD

Wayne....Thanks for the offers. If you could do me the favor of shooting me a copy of those pages that'd be great..!! Thumbsup I'll be needing a few more for some other engines that I'd like to put them onto.
Been working...Managed to put a pipe extension towards the tender from the CW pump. Drilling a tiny hole in the narrow face of the pump was tricky, but I managed to do it without breaking the bit or ruining the pump...!! 2285_
Next comes running the CW pipe towards the FWH, although it won't go up to it, it'll go under the cladding right behind the smoke box.

Les...I had to tap the thread for the screw that holds the headlight bracket. Since I don't have such a tiny tap, I used the screw itself as a tap. Only took about 2 hours, as I couldn't turn the screw but a tiny fraction of an inch before it got clogged. So i had to back it out, clean it, and go back to it. This using a small Phillips screwdriver....My fingers were sore for a couple of days... Nope
Gus (LC&P).
