These are all the parts of an 009 gauge Porter combined in one file. It contains the following items:

Main Body
The main body has been designed to fit on the existing snap mechanism of the chassis. It ontains a small supporting triangle, which ensures that the angle between the cab and the boiler remains straight during the printing process. This triangle and its support can be removed once the part has been cleaned.
Tank
The tank has been hollowed-out to be able to add more weight to the model with a product like 'Liquid Lead' or 'Ligquid Gravity'. tank also contains pre-modelled holes for short handrailknobs (Alan Gibson) and the tubing from the dome (0.45 mm nickel or brass wire).
Front Beam
The front beam fits inbetween the metal the chassis and the original Minitrains part with the cylinders attached to it.
Spark Arrester
The spark arrester has been designed to fit the K&S Engineering 3.5 mm thin wall tubing ,with a 0.25 mm wall thickness. A piece of this tubing can be used to build the smokestack, which can be fitted with an M2 bolt on top of the smokebox of the main body. This bolt also fits the main body tight in place and connects both the frontbeam and cylinders to the chassis. In the example model in the picture, an M2x30 bolt(www.krick-modell.de) was used together with a 9.1 mm piece of K&S Engineering 3.5 mm thin wall tubing, to create the smoke stack and to fit it to the main body.
