Actually it's not the best LBSC design. Beginners think it's a good first engine when in fact it's complicated with tiny parts and poor results unless well made. The original small boiler version looks the best and goes well if constructed to a good standard. Even LBSC had his doubts and upgraded to the larger boiler. Juliet is a better first engine or even a small 5in tank.
Thank you, the scale is 31/2 inches, haven,t done any video,s for a while as windows stopped thier version of movie maker, and just haven,t had the time to learn a new one but will make an extra effort to sort this out.
The rear axle and wheels are locked from side to side movement by the two slip eccentrics but what locks the front axle and wheels from moving from side to side I am currently building a titch and dont know whether side to side movement in the front axle will lead to the connecting rod hitting the piston arm.

Tich is a great LBSC design. Thanks for giving this one a new lease on life.

This video is helpful to me as I just started building a Tich. Thanks! Bill.
Pleased it was of some help Bill, haven,t had chance to do anymore to it because of circumstances, hope yours goes well.
@@MrNigel1340 thanks, Doc!
Nice work,,, I just bought a basket case titch 3.5,,, about 60% of it is there,, gotta make the rest... I may be gone some time.
Thank you, hope all goes well with your build.
I also like Keith Appleton’s videos
So do I, he covers a great many aspects of model engineering, have learnt a great many tips and tricks from him, plus he has a great sense of humour.
I agree, I have learnt a lot from watching his video,s.
He thinks he knows everything ! Just a big head know it all .
Very good, I would like to know where I can get the blueprint for this locomotive?
Good camera work and close-ups....

What scale is it and have you finished it yet?
Haven,t finished it yet as have had many things on, the gauge is 3 1/2 inch, will be carrying on with it as soon as time allows.
I didn't realise Tich has stop collars instead of full valve gear. Do you have to push start it?
Tich also has full outside Waleacharts valve gear.
Would like to know up to what speed will a tich run and how long between now coal will it run ?
Will let you know when I finish mine, also have plans to make a double scale Tich.
Why do you need to know ?
The rear axle and wheels are locked from side to side movement by the two slip eccentrics but what locks the front axle and wheels from moving from side to side I am currently building a titch and dont know whether side to side movement in the front axle will lead to the connecting rod hitting the piston arm.
Thank you for your question, will look at mine and let you know.
Appelton? Highly overratet.........
