Office of Steam Forum for Model & Toy Steam Gas & Hot Air Engines

Good day to you all.
Today was a good day as my Anton Bohaboy Workhorse engine arrived. Seen herewith  hopefully a photo in its pre loved condition. Lashings of oil later and the application of a little compressed air, off she went, runs really well.
I have seen somewhere online a
post showing as a backdrop a copy of the original drawings supplied with the castings, can anybody on here help me with a copy of these? Reasonable copying expenses of course gladly paid if you can help...please?
Cheers
Sirius.

Thank you Gil, yes I'm super pleased with it, just wish I had spotted the Bohaboy boiler for it elsewhere in the sale 🥺doh!!
Many of the screws are socket heads, I'd like to revert to fillister heads.
Don't suppose you know what threads were suggested/ used?

Thanks Nick, a little tlc and she will be right 😊👍
Do you have any Bohaboys?

😊👍 Good luck in your hunt then.

Yes everyone seems to say that. Puzzles me a little as many must have been built from the casting kits and not everyone is a good machinist.
My Old Faithful arrived and didn't run at all..but it was just the timing that needed sorting. Do you have any photos of yours you could share? 😊

Hi Stoker, thanks for the photos, that looks fantastic!
I'm assuming those that are signed on the flywheel were made by the man himself. Alas mine are not marked in this way I shall have to keep searching.
Either that or just sell me yours LOL (-;
Thanks again, great to see!

Thank you Gil, that 1x1 is very smart, is that plated?

That 1x1 is beautiful Gil!!
