Re: Faux firebox

[Vance Bass]

Royce,

Coincidentally, I finished mounting the firebox and pony truck on my Ruby 
last night. Photo attached (Dave, I made it small, in case it gets through to 
everyone again).

What I was referring to in the previous note is the fact that the four-wheel 
pony truck is mounted on a bolster, like a freight car truck. A two-wheel 
truck has a triangular swing frame, with the mounting point (pivot point) 
under the firebox. The mounting bar is held under the firebox by a couple 
of arms that reach down from the frame (see pic).

That that help clarify my earlier comments?
