Those aren't odd; they're beautiful.

I've always admired the photos of your stuff in the MM Euromilitaire specials and it's great to see more here.

These are beautiful Barney! Very interesting subjects and crisp and clean construction. Is there someplace where you have done any construction articles?

Thanks to you all for your comments
Chuck : There are some articles in the Italian magazine MODELLISMO STEEL ART with construction details and close up photos its OK if you can speak Italian. I no longer have the original script but in the big clear out I have found some construction photos and details hope to create a complete folder of all the models. Ref ' for details in Magazine Steel Art: No'6-2003 / No'14- 2005 /No'36-2006/No'24-2005/No'52-2008

Beautiful models, of very interesting prototypes! Thanks for posting the pics.

The steam powered crawler in the first few photos has such a small boiler, I wonder if the prototype had trouble providing enough steam for sustained work?

Title: Re: Odd Bods
Post by: Barney on July 09, 2011, 06:01:24 AM

Ray
Thanks for your comments - I thought the same about the boiler size until I was informed the boiler extends 2 foot below the floor and the coal "hole shoot" is a sizable bit of gear on the front . The Alley & Mclellan (Sentinel) Sales/advertising bits State "due to its simplicity of its design and the excellent Abbott boiler which provided ample supplies of hot -dry steam" But the War Department records show it was a total waste of space being under-powered -too heavy-and consumed massive amounts of fuel and the Holt track conversion was a constant source of problems and failures -The track system was replaced by a redesigned unit but still had its problems - ended its life as a Stationary Winch.

Title: Re: Odd Bods
Post by: Barney on July 23, 2011, 12:33:39 PM

Yes this is the big one 1/24th scale - measures 3 foot long and used a lot of Lego Blocks for the main chassis
What have I done of late - Building a Nash Quad truck with a Holt 1/2 track conversion towing a Anti Aircraft Gun -In the paint shop now -pictures soon
and finished the 1/20 scale workshop machines but do not like them - started again in 1/35th (defected to the other side) watch this space pictures on the way.

You need to be more specific when you ask a question like that to Barney . Do you mean "what have you done in the last month ?" , do you mean "what have you done in the last week ?" , do you mean " what have you done in the last day ?" or do you mean " what have you done while I was typing my post ?!" . You are talking to the guy who never stops modelling and who produces more in a month than the rest of us can do in a year .
Still he has just told you what he has done since breakfast so ask again tomorrow for an update ,

Barney, what material do you use for the sheet metal bits? Platicard or brass or?

Title: Re: Odd Bods
Post by: Barney on July 25, 2011, 08:10:28 AM

Chuck
I always use Plain white Styrene Sheet (Plastic Card) and embossed white Styrene sheet for the Chequer plate flooring I have found the Slater's chequer plate to be the best in comes in 10 thou and 15 thou a nice fine scale thickness - to create the metal look on worn floors - tracks -pulley wear and control levers etc first I give the surface a "ding" here and there with a knife blade or if its a cast iron surface I bounce a Dremel ball bit lightly over the surface - then a light sand and then I spray matt Humbrol tank grey let it dry overnight then dry brush with Humbrol Metal Coat normally polished steel.

You've got to have a good sense of humour ( note proper spelling ! ) if you want to hang around here .

You must realize, Nick, that in the dark and sordid past of your island nation, nefarious individuals used to charge by the letter to paint signs, write letters, whatever. Hence the injection of superfluous letters in words such as "humour". Unbiased and learned American etymologists corrected the misspelling to "humor" to protect your countrymen from financial exploitation.

Hah... very amusing Russ or should I say humourous. Many of these errant sign painters emigrated to Canada where the colourful practice of fleecing sign customers continues to this day... At least there are two countries in the world where correct English spelling and usage are still valued... ;)

Ref ' to the Trench Digger -the tracks used were modified white metal separate links from "Friulmodelli" still waiting for them to produce some Caterpillar types to save us artistic licence people some headaches. The brake wheels and hand wheels / control levers are from "Grandt Line" and the Junk box the rest of it is mainly Evergreen strips/ styrene sheet / brass wire and "LEGO BLOCKS" unfortunately no construction photos were only published only a few photos of the completed model - but on future models I hope to do step by step photos with a write up on construction ( watch this space for a " Tracked Fordson in 1/35th ) enclosed "quickey" photo of my latest project a Nash Quad with a Holt Half track conversion artillery supply and repair wagon.
(working on the photo problem with help from the Forum - much appreciated thanks)

Outstanding! Love seeing it in styrene. I like your use of the Panther or 38t wheels as well :D.

A question on the fabrication: On the side storage bin doors on the tractor, how thick is the styrene you used for the door panels, ad hoe did you achieve the nice even/consitant edge radius (front to back)? Was this done by hand, or do you use a shaped router or mill?

Thx.

Marc - storage doors made of 15thou styrene -cut to size and the corners rounded using 400 grit paper - wheels out of the scrap box worked out to size required just wrapped them with 10thou styrene strip. Scale 1/35th.
