No rocket science involved Len😉 Took about 2 mins.
Mr Google told me where to look. Mostly German firms. I just posted the first UK firm I found.

But I had a shrewd idea because I have the same low propshaft problem with my cutter Gina 2. A few years ago I bought some toothed belts and wheels from a German company, Krick or Conrad?, to solve the same problem as Gary has.

Hi Gary, I'm glad you found a solution already, thanks to Doug.
For me, however, the great and good news is that you are building a new steam model.
For me it's a model just to be admired, I can't wait to see some images of the developments.

Thanks Doug, much appreciated and just what I was looking for and couldn't find. I am pretty sure that I can make that work for me.
Regards, Gary.

Hi Gary,
Maybe 'Old Blighty' can help😉
They do both plastic (with brass hubs) and steel sprockets and chains.

Cheers, Doug😎

Could anyone out there in the ether possibly steer me in the right direction to find some mini steel chain and sprockets, as used for the drive chain in I/C nitro model cars, the sprockets to have a hub centre of 3 - 4mm for drive shafts of the same size. Although of course the centres could be drilled out to suit. I am hoping that the good old US of A. can deliver the goods for me, as there seems to be nothing in the U/K. In my searches so far. I am in the process of building a Lady Jane open steam launch by Maxwell Hemmings, and the prop shaft when parallel is, or will be about an inch lower than the steam engine. Hoping you can help me. Regards, Gary.
