Climax locomotive model, front view

A set of photos showing the construction of a Gauge 1 Live Steam Climax locomotive model based on scaling Kozo Hiraoka's 3/4" scale plans. To learn more about Kozo Hiraoka, you can visit the online Craftsmanship Museum. Also, don't miss my photo set here on Flickr of the trip to Japan to visit Kozo.

There are many photos of constructing the copper boiler which have been put in their own set to reduce the size of this set.
