Obviously under construction. That diagonal line of rivets is exceedingly difficult to do with my setup - maybe some paint will tone it down a bit. This one was originally a cab in back, but I grew quite bored with it that way.

Neither. I stuck in an ancient photo of the real thing. Kinda hoping my buddy Harold Broadbelt doesn't mind - he was always quick to allow use, as long as his name was attached and he got a copy.

There is a bunch of junk that occupies some of that space. What I am a bit more worried about is whether I matched the side rods - I think I did, but the counterweights look a bit off. The castings are from my patterns, so I suppose I could plug and re-drill if I did not do it correctly the first time - two decades ago.

I was looking at those diagonal rivets -I can make a tool to flatten them out, maybe. Couple pieces of wood and a c-clamp. Maybe tonight, along with some steps.
