CAD Sternwheeler Steam Lever Engines and Paddle Assy

This is my first big project with Fusion 360. It took a long time to make and there were plenty of mistakes along the way that had to be fixed. This rendering is within a couple of thou of the real engines and paddle I designed and built in my model of the Liberty Bell. Every part and detail has been reproduced ( i did leave out a few fasteners because my old laptop was bogging down with all the parts ). Fusion 360 is a great program and I want to thank all the people that have put how to videos on youtube to teach me how to use it, and Autodesk for making it available free for me as a hobbyist !!
My primary tutor has been Lars Christensen - / @cadcamstuff

Bonjour,
I know your amazing Liberty Bell, I wish that this plan will not be just a program test but will give life to another great boat.
Amicalement, Raphaël

Thanks Raphaël, I am not sure what will be next. I am thinking about learning how to cast metal or build a CNC mill or both. I did buy plans for a sail boat called Irene here - www.bearospaceindustries.com/boats2.html

Beautiful work! I have a Creole Queen which I'd like to make steam powered. Do you offer the Fusion files for sale?
