Here's a little something I've been working on in my spare time. Hopefully, there will be much more to it than this. We'll see.

Not much progress made in the last couple of days. That's life, I suppose. Here's how it now stands:

The British are keener on modeling working spring and equalizer suspensions, but I also think they're cool. They maximize your tractive effort(not counting rubber tires or Magne-Traction,) and allow models to use scale flanges.

Is this the program Preston used, Steve? And it looks fine to me. Unless you go in with calipers and hand measure and then scale it all to the rendering, Kentucky windage rules apply. Looks good so far.

Not sure which program Preston used, but I'm using AutoCAD. It's what I work with every day at the office.

I believe Preston did use AutoCAD.
