Thread: Perrier / Spink / Blackgate drawing lineage, errors, CAD

15/01/2023 10:05:10

I appreciate this is an old topic however, I am in the process of creating the 5" gauge Britannia in CAD before cutting material. I have an old set of drawings, copyright Spink Newbold and Chesterfield redrawn C.J. Gilbert 6.84. Are these the current drawings and the same as the one's available from Blackgates ?

I have come across several discrepancies the latest of which is a 1/32 difference between the planes of the crosshead (15/32) and the axes of the piston / valve (7/16)

If you have come across this please can you tell me how you rectified it, or has this been corrected on later drawings ?

Thread: Meehanite or SG for cylinders ?

Wish I could get some Duke of Gloucester drawings. I contacted the trust, but no reply.

I was enquiring with a view to machining rather than casting.
