Project Information
Finally got my shop up and running after moving to a new to me house, and this is the first model project out the door.
Made with poplar, cherry and the wheels are oak all scraps from a friends cabinet shop.
Blog is here.
This was built using the Toys And Joys plans for the wood burning train.
Most of my builds I shrink them down to 2/3 the normal plan size but went full size with this project.
Here's a blog post talking about the difference in size.
This train is usually built using a lath for the boiler domes and chimney but I did it instead with my disk sander, in the blog I show a little about this process.
And here's my first train build.
