01 /The design
From the pilot to the tender.
The No. 70 design follows a 2-8-2 Mikado wheel arrangement. The boiler, cab and long running gear lead into a matching tender, so the complete train forms one connected display.
Moving wheels and opening hatches are part of the design. This is an advanced build: allow space to sort the pieces and work through the PDF guide as you assemble the locomotive and tender.
Locomotive + tender
Both designs belong to this download; the tender is part of the project.
2-8-2
The Mikado wheel arrangement gives No. 70 its long running gear.
817 mm
The listed overall length includes the tender. Plan your display space for the pair.

Made from the files.
A physical build, with the maker’s choice of materials and finish.
02 /At your workbench
Choose your material.Make it fit.
Measure first.
Check your actual material thickness and the matching file version. Test the slots and kerf on a small cut.
Check the layout.
Open the supplied design in compatible laser software. Check that the layout fits your machine’s usable work area.
Follow the guide.
Use the PDF assembly guide to identify the parts and work through the construction sequence.
Plan this build.
Keep the locomotive and tender at the same scale. Sort the small running-gear parts before assembly and follow the guide for their order.
At the 3 mm material scale, no individual part exceeds 290 mm. This refers to one part, not the assembled model or the whole cutting layout. Rescaling changes that limit.

Can I change the scale?
Scale every part equally. Slots and tabs change with the design, so the material thickness must change in the same proportion; the finished dimensions also change. Test the fit and kerf before cutting all the parts.
