Writing something for such an illustrious magazine as Model Engineers' Workshop, I feel a bit of a fraud, never building a steam engine, traction engine, or steam locomotive. The basis of the article was that I needed an 80-tooth alloy gearwheel, I contacted several firms and the cheapest price quoted was £175 which seemed a lot of money to me. Probably in the future I would need a couple more. Typical of the age, I looked on the internet to see how to cut a gearwheel and ordered a Vertex HV4 rotary table, a 1.75 module involute number 2 gear cutter and a stub machine 22mm arbor plus a one metre length of 6 x 1/4" 6082 T6 Dural bar, photo 1. I already have a Warco wm250 lathe and a Chester Champion 16 vs milling machine.

机译：我为《 Model Engineers'Workshop》这样的杰出杂志写东西，这让我感到有些欺诈，从来没有建造蒸汽机，牵引机或蒸汽机车。文章的依据是我需要一个80齿的合金齿轮，我联系了多家公司，最便宜的报价是175英镑，对我来说似乎是很多钱。也许将来我会需要更多。在那个时代的典型时代，我在互联网上看了看如何切割齿轮，并订购了Vertex HV4转盘，1.75模块渐开线2号齿轮切刀和22mm刀杆的存根机加上一米长的6 x 1/4 “ 6082 T6硬质合金杆，照片1。我已经有了Warco wm250车床和Chester Champion 16 vs铣床。
