Hi everyone,

Whilst recovering from CV-19 and under lock-down I have been reviewing my priorities. On the bucket list is to make some steam engines.

This is not so unusual, I have been collecting toy engines for 47 years and exhibiting them for about 25, in the process I have gained a couple of degrees in mechanical engineering and become a Fellow of the IMechE, so its about time.

See you around

Hello Roger and welcome to this excellent forum. It sound like you will be setting up a workshop and, if so, there is plenty of help and advice available here, you have but to ask your questions.
