Rich Carlstedt's web site is :

He does some unbelievable work !! :bow: :bow: His model of the U.S.S.Monitor's engine is one of the finest models around :

I believe there's no castings involved, all parts hogged out of bar stock. He has an article somewhere that describes the machining of the steam pipes that you'd swear are castings ! Well worth the time to look very closely at the master workmanship and quality of his models..
