That's exactly why I hate people describing 6" as "half size" when it isn't. The maths works out that the full size engine occupies 8 times as much space in terms of volume as the 6" model. I know full well that my 6" Burrell is nothing like half size.

Nice to see it illustrated with a photo though Colin.

Your engine is real credit to you. I'm looking forward to seeing it in the flesh.

Seems to have been plenty of contributions to this Welland thread so I haven't added any not that I didn't take any, and had a good time.

A handful of my photos from Welland, I took far too many to post here! But you can find all the rest (including miniatures) here: https://www.facebook.com/media/set/?...6399505&type=3
You don't need to sign up to facebook to see them in case you're worried...
