Hello everyone.

I am an engineer in the Merchant Navy (27 years), currently a Chief Engineer.

Experience in both two stroke and 4 stroke engines and steam turbine installations.

Just overhauled a 1957 ML7 and bought an SX2.7 mill.

Currently machining the castings of a Stuart 10V (my first project) in my leave. The 3 weeks on/off rotation suits model engineering!

Regards

Paul
