Post Drill Press  - Western Scale Models
dual wheel grinder and stand - Western Scale Models
HackSaw and stand  - Western Scale Models

This model is based on the planer found in the Sierra Railroad machine shop. We changed the length of the bed from 20' to 14'. In O scale this kit measures 3.5" long, 2.875" wide and 2.25" tall. As you can see from the picture, this is an extremely detailed model. It is our goal to eventually release this in other scales.


This kit was originally produced by WSM in all white metal castings. We have re-designed this kit with all the detail of the original, have made it easier to assemble, now has parts that can be custom positioned, and is made of all 3D printed parts that are produced in house so we can control quality and assembly tolerances.

This kit reproduces three of the smaller machines in the Sierra Railroad machine shop. These are a pedestal grinder with two grinding wheels, a post drill with double back gears, and a power hack saw which is a "Marvel" Draw-Cut hack saw with a 6 3/4" stroke. All three are powered by an overhead belt drive.

Mount the “I” beam over a machine, like a lathe, or in a stamp mill, anywhere you need to lift heavy objects in place in order to machine them or maintain them.  The “I” beam mounts allow you to attach the “I” beam to joists in the ceiling in any position you may need.

This kit has been re-designed for fast assembly! It is now offered in S and HO scales (previously only in O). More specifications will be added when we update the product photos.

The McCabe heavy duty double spindle lathe was purchased second hand for the Sierra Railroad shop in 1911. It is 17 feet long, the bed is 30 inches wide, and the faceplate is 45 inches in diameter. The kit includes 47 white metal castings including overhead pulleys, belt material, and a detail instruction booklet. The model needs a floor space of 1 1/2" x 4 3/4" (O scale). The image above is of the original WSM casting. We will be re-designing this model in multiple scales.

The radial drill press was purchased second hand for the Sierra Railroad shop around 1900. The kit includes 36 detailed white metal castings including overhead drive pulleys, belt material, wire, and a 13 page instruction booklet with complete description of the drill press and how it works, detailed AutoCAD drawings, several pictures of the prototype drill including a color picture for paint reference. 

The car-wheel borer was purchased second hand for the Sierra Railroad shop in 1909. The kit consists of 34 detailed white metal castings including overhead drive pulleys, belt material, wire, and chain. The instruction booklet includes detailed AutoCAD drawings as well as a complete description of how the machine was used. The models stands 2-1/8" high and needs a floor space of 2" x 2-1/2". This machine would be found wherever freight or passenger car wheels were repaired.

Prototype by Niles-Bement-Pond Tool Company

This 48-inch, 200-ton hydraulic car wheel press was purchased in 1913. The model includes a swing post crane, differential chain hoist, and ceiling hardware. The kit includes 56 detailed white metal castings, belt material, wire, chain, and a 16 page instruction booklet with detailed AutoCAD drawings and a description of how the machine is used. The model stands 4 1/4" high but the post crane can be modified to reduce model height if necessary. A floor space of 2"x4 1/4" is required.

Hydrolic Wheel pres  - Western Scale Models
Engine Lathe  - Western Scale Models

Made by the Niles Tool Works Co., Hamilton, Ohio, the lathe has a 12’ bed. This is one of the most common types of lathes made. It is also possible to use the O scale lathe as a 1:20.3 bench top lathe. The O scale version is made in house of high quality 3D printed parts. We have taken the original WSM version and simplified the assembly process.
