Hi Ricardo,
Congratulations on your excellent build and I am really looking forward to your Borsig build since I can't forget about your previous train that dragged me into devilish thick card cutting....

Go Stephan go.
KAMI bless you!!!

I am grinding my skill secretly but got stuck and an idea came to me in a flash that now what I need is your neat build sample for image training by haunting it again and again like I did when you built steam locomotive long time ago.

@ Yu - you have been idle for quite a while in the Bn-21, haven't you? That worries me Too much work or not enough patience

I don't worry because royaloakmin took over my job
BTW, your last picture looks enchanting finger ring with jewely!!!

Fred-san,

Good news is that the pilot engine has been coming through so that I can avoid potential pitfall ahead by going through this thread until the finish

Cheers,

One click leads me to the Ricardo world where I see pictures filled with the distinctive flavor that I love very much and at the same time it devastates me so much that it induces seesaw of love and jealousy...

Cheers,
Devastated Yu

Mike, in addition to your neat build I am curious about the paper you use. Could you tell us what kind of paper is it?

As you can see in picture 1. I also had gaps between the inner red band and parts B in picture 2.
When I assembled it, first, I installed the inner red band to inside circle of parts D (flange). Perhaps it was my mistake because inside diameter differs from one part to another. Inside diameter of part B must have been slightly bigger than that of part D. So, now I guess it is better to install the inner red band to part B first, then adjust the inside diameter of part C and D in such a way that they fit to the inner red band. If the inner circle diameter of C or D is bigger than outside diameter of rounded red band, you can add strip of paper to fill the gap and even to do so it will be less visible after completion.
This is my guess.

Fred-san,

I just had a good idea!
Let me trade on you (after you make certain progress I will build mine making the best of your techniques and ideas) in return to let you tread on my feet as a trade-off
Pronunciation of "tread" differs from "trade" though

Kind regards

Thank you for dropping a note, Ricardo

Assembled brake shoes and arms

Even a little progress, every day modeling gives me happiness

Good looking indeed!!!

Hi John,
Seeing last three pictures I feel like as if I am standing on the courtyard and looking up real building, and am charmed with it.

Cheers,
Yu

Hello Bernhard,

Its my pleasure if my build will be of any help to you and thank you for your nice words

Today only small progress
Main rods
Made pin rolling up regular copy paper around 0.6mm plastic rod and at the end of the pin glued punched out red circle paper

Hi Ricardo,
You are very kind =)
Small gap between parts and a little bit run off glue bugs me.
Thanks to your encouragement got four wheels done

Congratulations Fred san on your beautiful locomotive.
As a train nut I always enjoy your build

Yu

Assembled only two wheels.
Workmanship isn't satisfactory

Hi Michael,

Steady work as always =D> =D> =D>
I have been waiting for your return for long time.

Best wishes,

Yu

Does this mean that there is another architectural build in your near future?

Yes John, Im going to build next architectural model in near future because I will have space to keep them soon. Recently I signed for new house that is more spacious compared to present one though it isnt so spacious according to Western standard. Here in Tokyo land price is still expensive.

Best wishes,
Yu

Hi John,

I have saved the pictures of your staircases for my future reference.

Cheers,
Yu

Hi Ricardo,

Your previous build was too fast so that I missed the final part.
I think you better abide by the speed limit 8)
I must not miss this thread from the beggining until the end

Cheers,
Yu

Congratulations Jonny,

Shining airframe is enchanting :prost:
And your build is very very good!!!!

Best regards,
Yu

Hi Martin,

No tricycle in winter? It seems we can enjoy your airplane build until return of spring

did you punch the rivets out of red construction paper?

Yes, Fred-san, first I glued scrap of red construction paper onto a 0.5mm thick card and puched it out as shown in first picture.

Today built the piston cylinders.
Delamination of hexagon bolts gave me trouble. I had to reglue them and some bolts becom out of alignment....

Hi Fred san,

From the picture I perceive your soulful building. You like Pirling kits after all

Greetings,
Yu

Really nice build and congratulations, Frank san :prost:

Hello Rutz,

This is interesting build and thank you for writing the report in English. I do not need to use translation software that sometimes gives me obscure translation

Greetings,
Yu

Thanks a lot Jonny

I really look forward to weekend lately because cannot afford to have time for paper modeling on weekdays.

Less modeling put me off my stroke and I need something that kicks me into gear.

Today assembled some of parts anyway.

Hi Olli san,

I like this build. It looks wooden ship and there is the feeling that the ship works for long time.

Congratulations on your build!!!

Greetings,
Yu

Hi michael,

Thanks a lot for your compliment.
And I am happy to know that you started new project.
I missed you for long time.
It's nice to have you around.

Cheers,
Yu

Servus Rene San,

Thank you for your encouraging words.
About axles, contrary to your expectation I used dia. 2.5mm plastic round bar because there was that perfect size plastic bar in my stock :rotwerd:

Best regards,
Yu

@Ricardo,
Good news I can't wait to see your locomotive build again.

@Alfred,
This is my second steam locomotive build. If you are interested you can see my first one at here [FERTIG] MODELIK Nr17/07 Orenstein & Koppel Cn2t 1:25

Today I have punched out a lot of rivets patiently from morning till night and got tired of repetition work.

Servus Alfred,

Do you hang a lot of missiles on the pylone?
I can't wait to see as I am weapon lover

Greetings,

Hi Ricardo,

My favorite bowl is gone then my favorite dominoes show up.
Sorry, couldn't resist... :rotwerd:

Yu

Hi guys thank you for dropping notes.

I apologize my writing wasnt clear. The shop name was Shinohara. They are specializing in manufacturing truck for HO and HOn3 gauge and in their shop, of course, Tenshodos expensive but precise trains were sold.

By the way, the first picture is one of my favorite locomotive, Westside lumber company No.8 Shay geared locomotive of HOn3 , that I bought about 20 years ago and spent about a year for assembly and running adjustment. Japanese brass model is precise but when it comes to smooth running American made model is better.

Got basic part of chassis done today.
This loco is tinier than Orenstein & Koppel Cn2t.
One of reason I opted for this model is its Allan straight link valve in that I am very much interested.
Now I noticed I have to make rivets. That is another nightmare as well as cutting thick paper.

Yu

Hi Frank-san,

If I had enough space to keep large locomotive, I would build it.
I envy you.
Nice build as always.
