New Memeber in Norfolk, UK

[petetwissellParticipant @petetwissell]

Hello all, I am a semi retired design engineer with a background starting in machine shops and progressing through to chief engineer at a large automotive supplier.

Now working part time as a consultant engineer and volunteering at a local steam museum, a windmill, on the parish council and village hall committee.

In the time I have available between work and volunteering, I have a range of projects in my home workshop.

Current projects include a large (2.3 litre) 7 cylinder radial engine, a much smaller 9 cylinder rotary engine, a tilting pedal driven tricycle and a couple of 1950s motorcycles.

I am a lapsed private pilot. I now satisfy my desire for aviation from building and flying models.

With every new project, I try to introduce something new that I have not done before.

I have joined this forum in the expectation of learning from other members.

Hi Pete, Welcome to the party. You have an interesting range of projects. I have worked in all forms of engineering for 60 years and am also a parish councillor of 35 years. I’m up near Hunstanton. Best wishes, Noel.

Hi and welcome. Sounds like you have a full itinerary to keep you busy with your hobbies and volunteer work.

Greetings Peter, you will find much of interest on this forum, once you sort the wheat from the chaff.
