What a lovely pig....oh and nice job on the Steam Tram too lol I have been following your channel for years and still love getting those notifications, keep up the excellent work matey.
Funny you should say that. A friend was asking me about making some 5-inch fingers last night. I have set up a scanner using an old Xbox Kinect but have not got round to dressing anyone up to scan yet.
Please let me know is you succeed. I am currently messing with an HO figure scaled up but it's low poly and the arms are in the wrong place. I am not smart enough to remodel the file but can probably do some physical cuting and gluing and filling to get a driver
Hey dear could you please demonstrate us how to work with mild steel casting or metals having high melting point. I learnt aluminium casting from you and did some castings too but failed in mild steel case
@@myfordboy cast steel is very common. Rail cars, locomotives, construction equipment, among others, heavily use cast steel. The real beauty of it, besides it’s strength, is it’s weldability! Cast iron, not so much! On rail equipment, the couplers & knuckles, wheels, trucks, center plate that sits in the truck bolster, are just a few of the components made of cast steel. Cast iron on the other hand is far too brittle to be of any use when you’re running 200+ car length trains of 100 ton cars!
The train demo made me smile, the pig made me chuckle, the heart on the pig's buttcheek made me chuckle a little louder. Thanks for sharing your passion with all of us. Cheers.
Where did you get the SV03 ? As far as I know , they're not avialble (yet) . You've used and demonstrated a number of 3D printers , what would you recommend for a starter with a reasonable budget ? Filament printers that is , not the anycubic version .
I understand the SV03 will be available to order in November. I was sent one to evaluate by Sovol 3D. Sovol is my favorite make. The SV01 is well made and uses a lot of Creality parts. Bigger bed than an an Ender 3 which is a good choice for a smaller budget. The glass bed holds prints well and release easy when cooled. The SV03 is even better. Larger build volume and has BLTouch auto leveling and "silent "board. You can upgrade the SV01 to a silent board also. I can't see you ever need another printer if you went for the SV03 350 x 350 x 400 build volume.
Well sometimes I feel like I switched to the TV Shop channel :) The difference is that they are talking nonstop :) When you made the extension to that flat cable, I was like "it's not very elegant, you should ask for a DuPont crimping tool :) and use the right length of cable instead". And later I see that you already have everything...
Your modeling, casting, 3d printing etc. are absolutely superior to my abilities; however I humbly suggest (purely as a preventative measure) to stagger the cuts on the extension so that none of the soldered splices coincide. Then there's zero point zero chance of them ever shorting thru the heat shrink, which has happened to me here and there.
@@danielstewart3507 It can happen. Heat shrink is not very elastic and can split open if it experiences too much flexing in use, exposing the bare wires underneath. This is not so much a problem if the joined wires are secured in place and not subject to bending.
@@myfordboy Good to hear. I wasn't interested because of the price. I was interested because of the craftsmanship and level of quality you put into it and didn't really have the satisfaction of a conclusion of seeing it print.
It's only the radio receiver that's battery powered. The loco has a steam engine. I have made plenty of other engines: Model Engine Videos: ruclips.net/p/PL334BF5CF1C9BB5DD
Homemade, Aluminum casted and 3D printed parts, steam powered, remote controlled, model train, and executed brilliantly. You Sir, are a genius.
I became a pipefitter then a boilermaker because of people/mentors like this gentleman.....Nice work and congratulations.
Wow nice break! You're steam train is amazing, maybe some working lights and horn and its done.
You have no limits to your creativity, so much fun to be able to watch as you create! Thanks for posting and going through the filming efforts.

Thanks for using and shearing my lamp design :D.
Great design, I just scaled it down to suit this model.
Thanks. Nice to see them being used.
i have been looking for a printable driver figure without success.

What a lovely little steam tram 👍👍 Looking forward to seeing it after the paint. Cheers, Alan.
Excellent work cant wait till see paint work 🏆🏆🏆
Old and new technology combined, sweet.
Modern technology with old school engineering. Glorious. Although old Steam will never be succumb to modern technology
very good video..thanks for your time
thats an awesome little tram. thanks for sharing
Old tech meets new tech... thanks for sharing...
Very talented, what a great piece of work.
Amazing. You are an artist!
I loved it. Can't say better than that.
Excelente trabajo. Genio de la construcción a mano.

Steel in not something that can be easily cast at home if at all.

I know cast steel is common but not something done by the hobbyist.
@@myfordboy I was just going by your reply “at home, if at all”. Love your channel!
good job! thanks for the video
Looks realy realy nice
Some pig! nice little model .
And what kind of toys do the grandkids get ?

Masterpiece.
I was hoping you were going to print the track sections: straight and curved.
great !
Fantastic content.
It's awesome!
I like it 💘continue 💥
Very Nice !

Is the reversing valve a commercial item?
No, my own design.
I always thought it was tricky to get a single action single cylinder engine to self start/reverse..
Not self stating but gives the chance to run in both directions.

You must be making a few mistakes somewhere if you are experiencing that problem.
@@danielstewart3507 It can happen. Heat shrink is not very elastic and can split open if it experiences too much flexing in use, exposing the bare wires underneath. This is not so much a problem if the joined wires are secured in place and not subject to bending.
@@ib9rt If you are putting the join where there is bending of the wires then you are definitely doing something wrong.
Whatever happened to the myfordboy 3d printer? Seems like it's been awhile since you've done anything with it.
It was finished and worked well but larger models are now easily bought and are cheaper than it cost to build mine.
@@myfordboy Good to hear. I wasn't interested because of the price. I was interested because of the craftsmanship and level of quality you put into it and didn't really have the satisfaction of a conclusion of seeing it print.
Wwoooww nice one😊😁😍🤩
Awsome!
Some Pig!
Boys and their toys.
Can You Make Engine ?
I made this one.
@@myfordboy but it's Working on Battery.. i mean can you make diesel Or Petrol engine ?
It's only the radio receiver that's battery powered. The loco has a steam engine. I have made plenty of other engines: Model Engine Videos: ruclips.net/p/PL334BF5CF1C9BB5DD
@@myfordboy okay I going to check it now ..Thank You
👏👏👏👏👏
Vanish all the 3d printers and cute kitty videos from youtube and you have only Commercials......
Are you trying to create a world shortage of 3D printers?.
funny
Exemplary !
