Here are some more boiler fabrication pictures. The top right picture shows the lower link pivot point with link to the lower cannon bearing. The rivets on the angle support bracket are fake as are all the rivets on the boiler. The top right picture shows the firebox installed into the outer boiler shell. The mud ring is starting to be welded. The second left picture show the bottom of the back head with the rear draft opening, clean out plugs for the mud ring area and the brackets for the lower cannon bearing spring mount brackets. The next picture down shows the boiler in its upright position with the steam dome in place. The bottom picture shows the boiler shell with side plates, back head and throat sheet all welded in place.
