Monobloc kit for GWR Collett 7ft Heavy Bogie.

The second Monobloc bogie kit is of a bogie widely fitted to GWR stock built in the 1920s and 30s. It was used under all manner of passenger and non-passenger coaching stock.
As with the LMS bogie released a few days ago, it can be easily sprung using shaped piano wire screwed to the inner block.
My test-printed example will run under my diagram O22 Siphon G (inside-frame with horizontal planks).

All "Monobloc" kits and other "3D Print 4 Yourself" items are free to Gauge 3 Society members, for personal use only.
