The only one I have seen is on Peters Toy Steam - if you google that his website should come up only best not to copy it re copyright.

Select the Danish section then Nilsson and there is a goodly selection of different models.

Worth having a look around his site as he has some nice items.

The firebox is all hand filed as is the boiler, 75mm o/d by 100mm long, as it was too large for my lathe at the time, and I did not have a mill.

A copy or an improvement?  ;)

Some very nice work and fancy cutting on the firebox. Have you got a picture to share of the original?

Uses a P M research flywheel. The rest is scratch built from bar stock.
