Hi, On a recent visit to South Africa I came across a couple of derilict steam powered drilling machine by the above company and thought what a wonderful model one of these would make. My question is ,does anyone know of the existance of any drawings for one of these engins in any scale or even full size.While i have the skills to build the model, i dont have the time or inclination to scale up from the photos that i took at the time so any info would be most welcoM. Thanks Tony.

Hi Tony,

Big machine tools make nice models.

Looks an interesting project. Would make a large model in say 2" scale at 3-4 ft long.

You may be better off asking on one of the American sites such as Smokstak.

 

Edit quick search on Smokstak brings up a few results such as this
