Do you have any more information on option 4 for home machinists? I sent an email to the info@ address but havent heard back yet.

I'm looking at a traction engine build (either a Burrell SCC / DCC 4 inch, but preferably the Little Samson 6 inch engine as its the one I would really want to attempt). Essentially I'm looking to kit build the larger parts (Wheels, fly-wheel etc) and then buy castings and machine the smaller parts myself over a longer timeframe to spread the cost as I'm new to metal work and would be learning as I go. This would be a massive time saver for me and would mean I don't need to invest in big lathes / milling machines but could still do a bit of machining myself.

The other option I might consider would be a kit build over a longer time frame (60/72 months) but I don't know whether this would be available?

Do you also have a price for the drawings yet?

Many thanks, Geoff Day
