Swayback Swell End Wharncliffe(ish) Single Jack

Post by smokepole »

Another one I have been working on this week - almost done. Steel is 2.5mm 12c27 as is the spring, liners, bolsters and pins are stainless steel and the wood is African Black Chacate.

I'll post up a few more when it's done.

Thanks for looking - and, as always, comments are welcome.

Thanks Dale, I appreciate. I am thinking of using the same frame but putting a more "conventional" Wharncliffe, or even sheep's foot, blade in there. Should make a real classic single Jack

Thanks Dale. I am thinking of using the same chassis and putting in a more "standard" Wharncliffe or even sheep's foot blade. Should make a very nice classic single Jack, I think.
