Hi All
I joined this forum after looking at some incredible engine builds. I have a Sieg 7X16 lathe and Sieg X2 mini mill.So far I have built 2 wobbler engines and I  am in the process of building Tubal Cains 2 cyl yellow boy, although not quite up to the build quality I have been seeing from the posts here. For my next engine if I could get a copy of the plans I would like to build Stewart Harts horizontal Pottymill  engine. Thanks for a great forum.

Hi Mauiray,

Welcome to this wonderful forum. I'm a relative newcomer here myself and a complete beginner when it comes to machining. I've also built 2 wobblers and am now doing a build thread on my Elmer's #43.

You will find great folks here who are helpful, supportive and encouraging, no matter what you're building. Hopefully you'll consider doing a build thread on your Tubalcain's Yellow Boy. Also, believe me when folks say they like pictures, they really mean it!
