| Im still working on master molds to cast my own replacements with an integral albeit small flywheel. I will be working on 3-D modeling later this year and that is one of the products that I am hoping to create a database for future use. I will let the forum know as soon as these are ready along with my Alco Hi-Ad truck sideframes for MU-2 and PT power trucks. I initially cast these parts in brass but the advent of 3-D printing makes producing these low volume parts much more economically feasible. My LLC will be up and running within the next few weeks I am looking forward to offering many items up for sale in the HO scale hobby. The period from my graduation since December has been one of catching up on deferred maintenance around the house. Being a full time student and working full time forced me to put a lot of things on the back-burner! Now I am closing in on things and am beginning to enjoy having a bit more time on my hands to pursue these things that I have wanted to do for such a long time. My studio will be focusing on creating rapid prototyping designs for industry but I will be including many of my personal interests as well just because when you are the boss you get to choose what projects get the green light. Stay tuned for more information on this in the very near future.

Metalsmith,
Looking forward to seeing your projects come to light! Def keep us updated! I could also use a PT pinion gear! Would love to see how the one w/the flywheel works!

Sounds amazing. Perhaps you could sculpt me a new 3D brain,
while your at it. See my posting, pinions included, "Up in
Smoke." Probably need another pinion gear, too.

Sorry for the delay fellas. I have been busy with a new job and getting caught up on four years of deferred maintenance that piled up around the house while I was enrolled as a full time student. I have formed the skeleton of my LLC and things are starting to come together. I also got pretty involved in doing a restoration on my old truck to use as a shop hauler and promotions tool. With winter approaching I am getting the itch to do more model railroad activities and I will keep everyone posted.
