      i have a lathe and small milling machine and a bit more time to learn how to use them, and would like to go down the road to eventually building model steam engines. As i`m now 60 i dont exactly have a lifetime to spend on the subject, its more a case of persuing an old interest and see where it goes without blowing myself or anyone else up. thanks for reading this.

            Welcome Mark, if it's any consolation I'm 13 years older than you but don't let thoughts of not finishing anything put me off. I enjoy myself pottering about and enjoyment is surely what it's all about.

                this is the first time ive ever used a forum but here goes, thank you for the welcomes, ive a lot to learn and a good number of questions, pottering about and enjoyment is my first reason for being here. At the moment i would like to start with stationary engines, and to show them running to the grandkids and then move onto locos later

                  Can recommend a Gauge One 'Project' locomotive as an 'easy' start, it will work and the drawings have no
