Gee whiz, Randy?you're going to scratch build a K-4 in N scale! At 
my age a magnifier is required to see some stuff on P48 engines!

I'm intrigued with your use of a CNC mill. Just how detailed can one 
carve on brass with a CNC set up? For example, could fluted side 
rods be machined with this system? I am not familiar with CNC 
machining but it certainly sounds like it would be a real asset in 
scratch building.

I have an old EMCO mill, the one you have to raise and lower the 
head manually. And a newer large mill, one of the Taiwan products, 
not the best quality but it works. I wonder if either could be set 
up with CNC?

I have a number of close up detail photos of a K-2 including the 
drivers. Both the K-2 and K-4 used the "square" counter weights. Let 
me know and I can scan and send.
