Last post by Bernhard - October 17, 2025, 03:13:29 AMQuote from: fspg2 on October 16, 2025, 01:50:04 AMHello Bernhard,
I'm glad you were able to explore so many great details to incorporate into your model!
Oh yes, the bucket has a great chain.
As inspiration, here is a link to the Buntbahn forum (in German), where Jürgen shows an ingenious implementation of a double roller chain for his Bundesbahn Köf2: click
I'm looking forward to seeing how the construction progresses!
Thanks to everyone for your comments!
Fortunately, flyer chains are used on the bucket instead of roller chains. They consist only of links and bolts. Since you can't buy anything like this, it's time to get creative again. I'll have the links cut out of nickel silver and then rivet them together like the original. This is going to be fun!
