Neat little project, and very cool to see and read the fabrication process. Thanks for sharing.

Gives a new meaning to "vintage tin".

Beautiful work.

More tin work just finished today.  This is a 1 1/12th scale locomotive oiler taken from a 1908 Fairbanks catalog.  It is hollow and the brass filler cap unscrews. I don't have much in the way of progression photos but you can see the base can as is it formed and soldered.

Any suggestions on how to get a wet oil look?

Wow!

More of the progression in developing the kerosene cans.  This is my method of holding the can while i solder on the bail ears. Also a start on a coffee pot. While I am set up for soldering I will also start on some of the soldering of the next project,

Incredible work -- you're not just modeling, you're making them the same way as the prototype only smaller!
