Marvelous! I've followed this delightfully dotty project from the start, Colonel, old chap. Bash on with the riveting!

No! Not the dreaded VSF Gamer's Lung!

He'll never be able to work in the balsa mines again.

You don't mine balsa, you ladle it...

One does, I suppose, wonder when it'll grow too large to sleep in the house...

Hi folks!

Sorry it took a while to update all this gubbins - I've been busy.

Anyway, here's more on the engine room. Floors, walls, coal bunker and other bits added...

Rivet count is up to 3,899 !

More to follow soon, and more on the blog:

All the Best!

An engine room should be dirty!

Once underway, but this is at inspection.

Must say, one look at this, followed by imagining the beast lurching, and I went looking for images of ships' stokers. I mean, you can see, if the walker sways or twists, the bunker could disgorge coal, smashing the stoker against the furnace. Most of the images I'm finding have a small pile dumped right in front of the firebox, brought up with a wheel barrow.

Lawd, what a mess!
