Hello Ben,

a really great build report. I have printed out the template in the meantime. Until my build starts, I will relax in my armchair and read your report, especially the improvements you make. So, as I build, I need not worry much about how any problems that arise will be solved. Just watch and read. Nice...  ;D

Thank you for the kind words, I think perhaps only you and txlabman are following my build thread, but that is enough to make it fun and worth while!
  I am only a beginner at paper card models, some take it to an art form, but as this model can be made to run, and stationary horizontal steam engines are my Favorite, so I don't mind putting my heart into this fun project. My goal is to get it to run on the quiet aquarium pump, but I believe if well built I may be able to step up to my airbrush pump and actually be able to power some of the smaller accessories, this will make the build more fun for me than simply constructing a display only model. I am happy to have you guys along for the journey.
