8/3/17 - NSW 6 wheel bogies

Today's work involved more milling of the spring chairs to make room for the leaf spring and the 4 rivets.  Below you can see the spring chair on the bogie, and the before/after milling to make a left hand version. 

A right hand version will be required for the other end of the leaf spring.  So far it's taking 10 minutes each to set up, mill down to shape with a 1/4" slot drill, and deburr.  Lots of time to be contemplating solutions for the loco problems!

Happy steaming!
