Hello all, and thanks for the positive comments. Finally got to a point where I could get the tank primed during a dry and low humidity weather window.
Had been busy making the (tiny) tank lid furniture out of mainly Nickel Silver.
The latch bolts are 3/64" (1.2mm) dia silver steel with 1/16" (1.56mm) stainless balls brazed on and fixed with 1/32"(0.8mm)rivets-
Next job is permanently fix the woodwork to the tank and finish ready for paint
Not completely successful with the soldered lettering, as a couple had moved slightly in the process...never mind!, just glad to get past this stage-
I really need good, dry painting weather now, as I have to paint and assemble this and the T/Engine to fix the dimensions for the towing bar frame for the Water Cart.
Regards.
