Construction Videos & Cutting Guide - Steam(punk) Locomotive

Hello everyone!
I have uploaded all of the construction videos to YouTube for both the Steam(punk) Locomotive and the Mini Album that fits inside.

There is also a Materials & Cutting Guide which includes the templates and Mini Album quotes up on Dropbox.  This is a PDF file which can be downloaded for free.

Hello April,
This is the most Awesome model I've ever seen (in my 72 yrs).
Your cutting and construction instructions are super in and of
themselves, add to that, you've also made such an informative
and detailed step-by-step video tutorial. My word, it must be
really interesting in your world.
I'm going to give this a try, with what ever time I may have.
Thank you for sharing this work of art with all of us!

A very late reaction of me. But i didnt hate time befor to react. Now I've downloade the compleet PDF to build one I see now that al the messures are in inch. So it is very difficult for me to understand al these messures. However i do my best to write in Englisch, its stay difficult also to read. However If i heve teh time i'll wil try to build the locomotive. but thank you als that you give the patterns free to download.


sincerely John Statue.

Ik heb het gedownload, maar ik zie maar een stum of 4 sjablonen. Waar is de rest? Im wert niet hoe ik het woord spaanplaat in het Engels heet. Masr ik kan mij niet voorstelken dat ik spaamplaat kan rondbuigen. Overigens ben ik nu eel van mening dat deze mooie steampunk lokomotief mij te hoog gegrepen is. Dus zal hem niet maken

John Statue- I hope I understood your comment and you can translate my answer… Templates are only provided for unusual shapes and are on page 4 of the pdf file. The cutting guide along with the videos provide instructions for cutting the rest of the pieces. I would suggest watching the construction videos first before starting the project. That will give you a better idea of the complexity of building the project.
