I turned the chimney down in my drill using files and my calipers to get the size
right. The grab irons are all made from .4mm brass wire and fitted individually. The break chain is also brass.

Though this photo was taken earlier, it shows the grab irons, cut bar, and air hose in a better light.

The first paint. Not too bad, but it shows some problems with the look of the roof line.
|
 |

Now things are starting to look a little better. The see through steps are in place and the decals are
installed.

The roof edges
look a lot better after some sheet metal work. The fuel tank on the back is made from styrene and brass. the tank
straps are from the same aluminum tape as the walls and roof. The bars on the windows were added just prior to painting.
The decals are from OddBall's.
