For Sale: 3.5” Gauge Small Boiler Tich – Set of Castings and Plans

Thu 5th Mar '26

Advert ID: 45058

Models
Old Stock (New but storage spoil)
See all ads from David Fielding
Details:
While I was working, I collected many sets of plans and materials for “retirement” projects. Having now retired I have simply too many projects, so I’m thinning them out a bit.
Plans: 11 Sheets (complete) with both Small and Large Boiler details (Good clean condition but aged)
Materials: Frame steel (BMS) and buffer beam angle (BMS), Horns (Hot Pressed x 4), Axle Box (GM bar for 4), Wheels (CI x 4 see note 1), Buffer Stocks (CI x 4), Buffer Heads (CI x 3 plus CI x 1 see note 2), Pump Stay (GM x 1), Axle Pump (GM x 1), Eccentric Strap (GM x 1), Feed Water and Pump Tees (GM Paired), Cylinders (GM x 2), Cylinder Covers Front (GM x 2), Cylinder Covers Rear (GM x 2), Pistons (GM x 2), Valve chests (GM x 2), Valve Covers (GM x 2), Cross Heads (GM x 2), Guide Bar Support Bracket (GM x 2), Large Dome Inner (GM x 1), Large Dome Outer (GM x 1), Dome Bush (GM x 1), Dome Regulator Stand (GM x 1), Smokebox Saddle (GM x 1), Smokebox Front (GM x 1), Smokebox Door (GM x 1), Chimney (GM x 1), Brake Blocks (6 in a ring), Firebox Grate (CI x 1), Hand Pump (GM x 1), Steam Tees (GM Paired)
1) Over the years I’ve somehow managed to collect 5 sets of wheel castings(!) – only one set will be included, please see the picture and let me know which set you would like.
2) There are 3 “correct” Buffer Head castings, there is also which is smaller (I didn’t notice when I bought them). It should be possible to use it by minor adjustment of the buffer shank dimension; I would suggest machining this one first and if its satisfactory make the others to suit. Otherwise make the heads from BMS bar.

For Sale: Abwood 6" Tilt and Swivel Milling Vice

Wed 4th Mar '26

Advert ID: 45055

Tools & Parts (Small tooling)
Used (Correct working)
See all ads from David Fielding
Details:
An Abwood tilting and swivelling vice in very nice condition, having been overhauled and painted by its previous owner. I bought it for one specific job and since then it's been sitting un-used on the bench. As I've now retired, and am concentrating on small items, it is time to reluctantly part with it as I can’t see me needing it again.
The jaws are new replacements and unmarked, but there are a few "oops" marks on the top surface of the moving jaw body casting. These are cosmetic only. The bed is lightly scuffed from normal use but has not been abused. Please see the pictures.
The jaw width is 6.25”, the depth from bed to top of jaw is 2.25”, and the opening is 4.5” maximum. It will tilt to 90 degrees.
It's heavy, about 50 kilos, but it can easily be split into two sections to move about the workshop, the top section is about 30 kilos and the bottom about 20 kilos (see picture).
Collection is much prefered, but I will consider shipping if necessary – I will need your delivery address to obtain a quote. Please be aware that UK mainland shipping is likely to be around £50 due to the weight.

Long Shot: Pultra 1770 (20mm) headstock

Wed 4th Mar '26

Advert ID: 45053

Machines (Large Tooling)
Details:
Again rather a long shot, but has anyone out there got a Pultra 1770 headstock with 20mm capacity surplus to requirements. These were made in small numbers by the company to take the same collet as the 1590 lathe headstock to increase the capacity of the smaller machine. Good condition desired, but anything considered. I can be contacted either by email or Whatsapp on my mobile number.

Sun 1st Mar '26

Advert ID: 45048

Tools & Parts (Small tooling)
Details:
Is anyone able to identify the maker and model or code number of this collet from a French made machine. It is a fairly typical shape and the lower 'collar'is stamped S3726 which may be the type of collet (such as 5C) but so far an internet search has come up with nothing. What I think are the important dimensions are show in one of the photos. Any help will be gratefully receieved. Thank you.

For Sale: Maxitrak Planet Shunter in very good condition.

Sat 28th Feb '26

Advert ID: 45046

Models
Excellent State (Well maintained)
Details:
Maxitrak Planet 0-4-0 shunter.
Bought from Station Road Steam as 'new' in May 2020
Not had a lot of use and the battery is still good, it runs for a few hours.
Having to thin down on toys due to lack of space and we don't see our grandchildren much now they have moved to Somerset, (Please excuse the violins playing in the background!) it doesn't get much use now.
Generally as Maxitrak intended except the motors have been rewired with more suitable wire with spiral wrap to protect them and the fragile horns have been replaced with much stronger ones.
Happy to take more photos and answer more questions. Can be demonstrated running.
I can deliver locally, 30 miles or so radius.
