The accompanying article in issue 3 (available to subscribers in the MEW archive) was wiritten in Stan's inimitable style, so I suspect it is another of his designs, although it isn't credited. To quote from the article:
"While this is a departure for Model Engineers' Workshop, it is in fact an exercise in many metalwork skills."
Hi,
I'm the editor of Model Engineers' Workshop magazine and, for my sins, one of the website admins.
I'm a model engineer, and in the past I have written for ME and MEW, but I won't claim any great stock of expertise, just plenty of enthusiasm. Before becoming editor I used to post on this forum as Stub Mandrel (and may occasionally still do so).
If you would like to find out more about me, my personal website is www.stubmandrel.co.uk/ and I have an author page on Amazon at amazon.co.uk/Neil-M-Wyatt/
Feel free to send me a 'pm' (message member) but these are a bit slow and clumsy, so if you would like to get in touch with me by email use neil.wyatt@mytimemedia.com
If you want to send me a friend request, don't! Nothing personal – but I refuse all requests so I don't have to choose which ones to accept and which to reject.
I'm always glad to hear your views on the magazine, and particularly keen to encourage new contributors to 'have a go', so let me know if you have any ideas for articles.
I hope to hear from you soon.
Neil
