This is just a place for me to dump my progress of Pozieres v2 as my original version was made in fusion360 which limited me in how I build things.

Beautiful drawings, the challenge is going to be to actually print some of those fine details!

A really fine looking loco. The level of detail in your 3D drawings is excellent.

I can only imagine how much time that must take to model.
On another note, I should hope the good doctor will be driving the completed loco.

for me modelling things is just if I am motivated to do it, this model only took me mere days to get to that point.
the real difficult thing is chassis, as i could make a custom one or use the LGB U class I was given.

I used a U-Class motor block for my Southwold Manning Wardle build. It was secondhand when I bought it and it's given me twelve years of good service and is still going strong ....
