Edrig wheelbase

Hi all

I'm planning on building a live steam loco using various Accucraft, roundhouse and Roy wood components. I'm wondering if anyone has a edrig ( or any Accucraft with the same chassis) could they tell me it's wheel size and wheelbase ( distance between axles)?

Just so I can decide if I want to use their coupling rods

Thanks

I believe it's 36mm wheels at 80mm pitch. But, I'm reading that off a drawing I prepared several years ago, and I don't now have an edrig around to double check it on. It's also possible I guess that the things are made to nominal imperial dimensions - ie if the wheelbase was actually 3-1/8", that'd work out as 79.38mm, but that seems a strange number to use, and the wheel dia is even less of a nice round number in inches.
