Hello everyone.

Just joined this forum as I have recently inherited my uncles Philip’s entire workshop.
He’s an amazing model maker – including a stunning twin cylinder steam engine which he exhibited at the Midlands Model Engineering Exhibition in 2006, & a 6ft tall grandfather clock – completed in around 2012.

I have my own bespoke furniture Business so there’s quite an overlap & I have 2 sons – one is a very keen model maker & digital artist (currently studying at Bristol school of Art) the other is a musician & we built a guitar together about 10 years ago.

that’s all for now – but will post some pics if anyone is interested?

Welcome!

It’s always nice to see what other people get up to in the workshop. More variety the better!

Welcome.

Lots of help and advice should you need it.

There is quite an active M E Society in Bristol, so it would be worth joining..

Am sure that members would be happy to share knowledge, and possibly demonstrate, face to face.
