WAKEFIELD No 7 LUBRICATOR (one supplied) FRONT WHEEL - 6 FEED (Gauge 1 10mm scale)

This is a 3D printed item, using a fine ABS like resin.

The photos are of an example of the finished item as you will receive it (one lubricator will be supplied). These are genuine photos taken with a full frame 35mm SLR and not a digital representation. You simply need to remove the print supports from under the flat base, lightly sand the circumference of the ratchet wheel, clear the holes in the hexagon fittings for the pipework (using either a 0.4mm or 0.5mm drill bit) and it is ready to paint / fit. The actuating lever on the ratchet wheel extends below the base of the lubricator so that this can be located to pass through a slot in the footplate... if you have modelled one.

Bear in mind the size of these items when looking at the detail in the photos. This lubricator main housing is 7.7mm long, 7.7mm wide and 9.2mm high (13.3mm including the ratchet and flushing wheel).

These parts were commissioned from an enthusiast who was distressed by the number of drill bits that were getting broken when drilling through brass or white-metal. The added bonus was the hex pipe nuts, "WAKEFIELD" wording on the ratchet and there is even the wing nut on the lid fixing!!
