Opening smokebox door mod

Hi Dala,

Probably the best way to hinge it would be to have a couple of small tubes fitted to something attached to the boiler and a small tube that is appropriate size to fit between the two small tubes attached to the appropriate edge of the smokebox door.  You could then use a pin or similar to effectively make a hinge.   Bearing in mind the size maybe you could use some rubber sleeve from a small electrical wire for the tubes?  Just suggestions Smile

As for the 'clock hands' on English loco's that is commonly referred to as "The Dart" Smile

Hope this helps...
