Build WebSite

Hi all,

I thought I would post this link as I am away getting married and honeymooning in October and the plan at the moment is to start the build in November.

I plan to document the entire build/paint and running of my DCC Burrell.

it's not a new idea as other STW owners have done the same in the past.

What I hope to achieve is while having extreme fun building the engine i am also creating an archive for future reference
and for personal achievement.

it will also serve as a reference for those also building and has a dedicated email address should you wish to drop me a line or two...


If any of you have any ideas of what might be a good idea to add to the site let me know..

Dean/Steve, I have used pictures/videos that have been posted on youtube mainly casting and machining. I hope you don't mind and i'll remove them at your request.

Hope to see some of you at Old Warden...

Trust me Big Al,

To be fair i'd planned to build an engine before i'd planned to get married...
unfortunately both have clashed but my ultimate controller (wife) is a very understanding one and thankfully she has allowed it..

I've got plently to do....
Here the list so far.

1. Complete single story extension to rear of house.
2. Move kitchen into extension.
3. knock out two internal walls and fit new bathroom.
4. Go for promotion at work
5. Lay garden path
6. Start a family

sometime between doing all this complete a 4" road loco and keep a web site updated...

no problem.

hello nick, just wanted to say, with the kit production starting very soon, we should be seeing some production guides on the forum for future reference, you are more than welcome to use any images that are posted

craig @ STW

Craig,

I plan to revamp the site as the build progresses as the the idea was to get a basic site constructed before we start the engine.

The use of photos and videos of production will be greatly appreciated...

cheers
Nick

Hi nick,
I think someone has hi-jacked your site burrellroadloco.co.uk, there was no sign of a steam engine anywhere!

Trying to rectify the issue.

For some reason the site is re-directing to my wedding photos !!!!





Nick

All up and running again.

I'm in the process of updating the site as i have made steady progress.
lining the front wheels at the moment.

How are you all getting on..
any photos to post?

Nick

As the updates to the site have become more sporadic I will post a quick note here when new stuff has been added to save you the hassle of checking yourself.

last updated today..

Nick

Hi Nick
When you update your site would you be able to say where the update is? ie in your build section or the painting section just to save me looking all around your site to see whats new and because i am a lazy bugger


Mark

No problem mark

was thinking of doing that.

I will put some links from the home page for recent updates
