Hello and welcome Mark

Sounds like a nice project.

See if you can get this moved to the model engines bit as you will get more of a response there.

Hi,

I have some machined castings, wheels made by Bob as I had an idea that 2 would be a good idea. I am open to offers or can send photos and lists etc.From memory

Front axle.
Smoke box door.
Laser cut spokes
Rolled wheels front and back
All hubs machined
canon bracket
axle and bearing castings
plus more.

This would be a good start for you, I am in my fifth year of building the Garrett!
