A link to this blog was posted on Madmodder and I thought it may be of interest. Hundreads of photos of a loco build, even if you are not into locos like me the tecniques are worth looking at. Its in French but Google does a good translation.

Just read through the boiler making threads. That bloke seems to know what he's doing. I like the way he uses the horizontal mill for machining most of his boiler parts. Wish I could use a stick welder like that..
