1:20.3 tender

[Rhinochugger]

Pushing my luck a bit here, but wondering whether there's a tender shell that anybody's got lying around.

It needs to measure approx 135mm wide. Bachmann have some K27 tender shells, but they're £50 and that's stretching the wallet a bit too far.

I'm not sure about the big moguls, what width are they? or the 4-4-0s?

I'm getting lazy with the idea of bigging up the 1:22.5 tender - or running short of time; I mean, the summer will soon be here and I need another track powered loco ready

The Bachmann 4-4-0 and Mogul tenders are very small and an Annie tender is larger. The Connie is probably the only big fat tender that you are likely to find someone with a spare.

Mmmmmm

It's not the hacksawing that's the problem, it's replacing the rivets after all the sanding - looks like it could be some of Mike's Wussian Wivets nphone:

I thought of starting from scratch, but I did that with the 10-wheeler in my avatar, and that took a fair old while (well - a week when I was off sick and I had most of the materials to hand)

Anybody trashed a C19 yet
