Wishing you a Sweet Holiday!
Several years ago, we began putting a packet of mints in each of our shipments. Some very funny comments like 'are these aspirin for the headaches you get from building Pochers!' We hope you have been enjoying them.

December's Feature Exhibit

1:24 scale engine modeled after the West Side Lumber Company's Porter
From the Builder...
This 1.24 scale engine is modeled after the West Side Lumber Company's Porter.
The West Side Lumber operated in California used this engine for construction of the logging railroad around 1900. There are very few commercial parts in the model. Mainly inside of the cab, valves, levers , & gauges. The wheels are also a commercial product.
However, 90% of the model is scratch built out of brass. The cab is built out of flat brass sheet stock using 1mm bolts to hold it together from Scale hardware.
This way it could be taken apart in the future for painting. The frame and the rest of the engine were machined on my Sherline milling machine and lathe.
I have used a lot of 1mm rivet heads for additional detail from Scale hardware. The smoke stack by far was the hardest part to build but suits the engine. It took close to 240 hours to build this engine.
We have now opened the Scale Hardware Model Museum.
Featuring all scales and subjects!
You may have noticed the addition of several videos to the Museum.
It's very easy with all the new devices and certainly adds
to the presentation of your beautiful models.
Keep them coming!
