Is that for your personal collection, or to be sold as a production item?

If the first, i say well done, love it in all brass, and it looks very well made!

If the latter, i say leave such accurate Stuart designs to Stuart.
Cheers

Wow, that looks great.
I will often use the same finish technique on brass. 
Rough machine, then sandblast, then finish machine.
Kind of makes it look more like a casting.

Here are some parts I made for a tiny Major Beam engine.

It looks identical in shape but smaller than the Stuart.
Am I seeing this correctly?

I also see it next to a larger model.

Also, someone else is making a huge S-50 and they have been asking 1700-1800 for it.
