MJEng Fowler A7 – what CAN’T I do on an ML7?

[Martin Johnson 1Participant @martinjohnson1]

The 3" Fowler makes a very nice model and is OK for rally use (a friend has one). Not the simplest engine to build, but very faithful to prototype. I have just responded to your post on TT as well.

I've e-mailed Fred to check what parts he could not fit on his Myford and also asked him to post a picture of the scratter mill that he built as you asked about something for the engine to drive, he will hopefully reply on TT

Worth saying that Fred had only built a Stuart oscillating engine before the Fowler which he has done a great job on, there is also a riding cart, water bowser and waggon all of which it will tow along with him.

Note that MJ Engineering cannot currently supply rolled steel wheels.

I have just spoken with Mr Barsby who has given me this information.  He is currently looking for someone who can roll the rims, so if anyone knows of a company who can do-so then perhaps let him know – or even post here so that we can all take advantage!

Regards,

Phil Roe

I know the company that he used had a few changes but people have been able to get them to roll wheels and other items. I think the owner retired and his sons now run the business.
