Hi, new member from Yorkshire.

Hi all,

I'm a new member having just registered today so thought I'd better take a few minutes to write a brief intro.

I'm comparatively new to model engineering but have a small bench lathe and mill plus the usual tooling. My main interest is in stationary steam engines and so far I've built the usual little oscillators, a couple of Stew Harts 'Potty' engines, a Muncaster Entablature engine and well on the way to finishing a pair of Stuart replica vertical engines made from part castings and part barstock.

I'm hoping to start building my first non steam engine shortly and have ordered a set of castings for a small hit and miss engine, I also have a set of castings to make the 3" Southworth steam pump.

Thanks :-)
