Hi All, I received a lot of castings from my caster this week. I just revised my Solidworks Modeling page to include the first of the new castings I used, the Numberplate for K4 5495. I now have parts for at least 1/2 of the other items on that page as well.
I was very happy with the quality of the castings. I will be adding more photos of the real castings when I can. I have definitely proven to myself that this is a very viable process that will produce otherwise very difficult or impossible to make brass parts. If you are in the Philadelphia area, I will be giving a brief update of the presentation I gave at the last meeting of the Phila. Chapter of the PRR T&HS http://www.prrths.com/Phila_Upcoming.htm on Solidworks modeling. I will have many of the castings there for the modelers meeting that starts at 11:00. I will also be at the Central Jersey S Scalers Get Together. http://www.nasg.org/cjss.html Please reply to me directly if you have a question about the process or attending either of the meetings.
