Those are innovative construction techniques using the solder to assemble strips of metal into a progressively thicker final product. And changing the shapes on each layer, depending on what's being done, would otherwise be quite impossible. Bravo and Merry Christmas to you and your family sir!
Amazing work David, especially soldering the brass parts together. Using the hot air gun was clever. Not seen that done before. Another tip to file away! Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to you and your family. Cheers Nobby

Good show as always. Merry Christmas Mate!
Beautiful job David
Top notch my friend, well done.
The detail work on this little loco is quite impressive, very nice job 👍👍👍 Cheers, Alan.

Looks to be a smooth runner!

Good use of "old school" and "high tech" techniques.
How thick was the material you cut with the laser? Pretty nice 👍🏻
0.5 mm
Did you make the springs in brass for the axle to use as a bearing? I wondered if they could have been 3D printed with room for a small brass bush.
The spring detail is a dummy.
There's is a real spring leaf inside. 3d printed parts would melt on a steam loco so I can't use them here!
