as the count down clock indicate 7 months and 11 days... I decided to get started on making a new display for my front yard. I am gonna make a Train. I got started designing the engine and will do the cars next. The flat work will be done on the CNC and the round part will simply be made from PVC pipe. The engine will be about 36 inches long and 13 high to give you an example of the scale of this. The boiler will be 6 inch PVC and the smoke stake 2 ". If I still had my lalthe I would use it on the round part. (If I get over to California soon enough I got a line on a Lathe that I may get, we will see I am supposed to go over there for a memorial service in June if they get the stay at home recinded in that state)
The following picture is of and engine I found online to give me an example of the parts of the engine and the prospective size of the components.
The next picture if the Fusion drawing I will use to cut out the parts.
I doubt if I will have time to make it move but who knows it depends on how long it takes me to build it.
