Yup, so far i have some random bolts, a valve and a pile of asbestos to line the boiler. this might take me 400 years.

Oh can you send over some of your asbestos? I'm building a tram that needs to be fire-proof in order to protect the wooden autopilot system. The cork wheels might need some protection too.

Right - you can use 3d max to design and export and then you use photoshop to render to png and then you use vehicle creator to make a train.
