Building Brass Quarry Line cars

Nice work Bernd. I should really pay attention. I thought you were making the bearings flanged by turning them down one at a time. A clever way to omit friction!

Thanks Philip.

If you go back to page 1 post#7 it shows all the parts and assembly of said parts. I used a brass rod drilled out and reamed for the bearings to fit in snug. The OD of the rod fits the curved cutouts on the chassis frame. The bearing tubes were soldered on first using the jig in the center of the picture. The bearings and wheels were then pressed on to gauge.
