is anyone making these?
Hi All, Before I make a hand full of these cut lever brackets, does anyone know of a supplier who has already made them? I searched Shapeways and couldn't find anything, and the ones from PSC aren't right.. Thanks.. John

Hi John,
Oddly enough I began drawing up one for my tanks just last night.

I have since sold my locomotive and can't remember if I had used Railroad Supply brackets, but I know brackets are available. Here's some pics on the Fitchburg Northern Builders Group on Facebook:

John,
I found a works drawing for a GWR lift ring bracket, which is vaguely similar to the photos. I'm now toying with proportions so that the brackets won't be over or under-sized for my tanks. At first I planned to fabricate the four I need, and may still, but lately I thought I might make a pattern and have them L/W cast by a friend.

Oops - Never mind. I'm working on TANK lift brackets. They're still vaguely similar but perhaps larger and heavier.

Precison Steel Car has them for 1.25 each.
Part number L-006. Look under this link http://www.precisionsteelcar.com/details_loco.html
Scroll down to "Other Parts".
Can't beat the price.
