Hi John,
I have been super busy with paint and brass work to look for and measure smoke box fronts. Sorry for my delay in response.?
I was thinking about your turning down a 98¡± to a 88¡±. Wouldn¡¯t that cut the line of rivet detail on the out side radius off? Or darn close to them? ?
I thought 88¡± sounded familiar, so I measured one of my heavies. It measured the 88¡± you¡¯re looking for.?
I have one in my used parts bin I believe should work for you.?
