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

Doing a great job so far Benny - it's coming along nicely! Following your thread is giving me a lot of ideas on how to go about a restoration like this - thanks for sharing.

Thanks, Larry. It is part time research and part time restore. I feel like I spend as much time reading as I do actually working. The engine base paint had me befuddled, with the nice green wash over the brown....turns out it's as easy as that- a wash. Thin highlight paint with water, then paint over your base color. Test pieces have produced good results.
Thanks for the feedback and I'm glad I can be helpful.
