I had to have some work done on my hands this year, which took me completely out of any ability to do any modeling for the entire summer. But my hands are almost entirely back to normal, so I had to test them out. I decided to do a little bitsa loco with whatever I had on hand. I used an old 2nd generation Bachmann ten-wheeler drive for it. It’s a mix of scratch built with some 3D printed parts. It came out OK for what it is, so I feel confident moving on to some of my more ambitious, already started, projects.

Great to see you back Chris, marvelous little loco there.
I trust that your hands are all set for your upcoming awesome projects!
Welcome back! If that is your warn-up project, I cannot wait to see what comes next!

Chris, where do you find your detail parts?
Just all over; everywhere and anywhere. I’m always on the lookout for bits to use, although I am moving more towards 3D printing my own details these days.
Chris thats awesome, is it powered? Whats the drive?
