Chassis and gearbox for 1910 Greenly designed Great Northern Gauge 2 0-4-0 Saddle Tank. This model was originally electric when made in 1910 but came to me without chassis or mechanism. The outline follows Greenly's design and the mechanism is a modern 385 motor driving through my standard bevel wheel gearbox. Power is supplied by 2x 26650 Lipos and running time is several hours (at least).
This is some openSCAD code and stls for an L shaped corner clamp. Given the need I will try to enhance this code further at some time.
Hopefully this will prove usefull to someone. Does not need supports to print.
The first parameter "type" is there for future additions of different clamps.

It is sometimes desired to combine the use of a slicer program with a 3d Printer that was not originally designed for it. This can occur when changing slicers or using older generation printers. I had a particular need to use an ageing but large and still excellent Taz 5 3d printer, with Prusa Slicer, which is one of the leading slicer programs currently (2023), under continuous development. Prusa Slicer does support many third party printers but not the Taz 5. After searching I came across a Reddit/Lulzbot link to a Github project that is aiming to link Prusa and Lulzbot in this way.
Pug Saddle Tank -Revision 2 – Optional changes Aug 2023
This update provides:
1. Revised frames and frame stretchers to allow access for a ball driver/screw driver to the frame side screws with clearance from the wheels. This aids assembly.
2. A revised footplate moves the battery holder forward to give clearance for a firebox LED if desired. Also this footplate accommodates a Hornby HM7000-21TXS Bluetooth DCC decoder and connection adaptor board in place of the previously fitted 'Locoremote' controller.
A simple gauge to check for 45mm track gauge & buffer heights. Track gauge faults cause derailments. Buffer height variations lead to buffer locking on curves & then mysterious derailments on straights.
Four wheel horsebox with groomsman compartment built by the SER on an 8'6" wheelbase chassis. Would have likely later been modified by the SECR to have brakes or at least through-piped. These units were used into SR service and were more numerous than the 6-wheel design. Drawn in 10mm scale
