New Build.. Bentley BR 2

[Brian AbbottParticipant @brianabbott67793]

Hello everyone.

Looking for me next long term(ish) project and really fancy building a Bentley BR 2 engine.

After any advice to someone just starting a build ?

Thank you

Brian

Hello Brian, that’s quite a colossal challenge your proposing. An article was serialised in Model Engineer starting around late 1982/early 1983 of the build of a 1/4 scale working model, there may be a book version if you can find one.

Afaik the book is now out of print, but a previously owned copy shouldn’t be that hard to find.

Have a look on https://www.modelenginemaker.com/. Some of its members have built BR2s and recorded their experiences.

Thanks all for the advice.

I have joined HMEM, seems to be the place for these engines.
