Thanks for all the helpful replies, although the Stuart 10's are a popular beginners choice the suggestions have given me other options to look at.
Some great looking kits there that I hadn't seen before Jason. I'm glad I asked the original question as it's thrown up loads of kits worth looking into.I quite like the look of this one :-http://www.ts-modelldampfmaschinen.de/produktuebersicht/6-dampfmaschinen--steam-engine/116-paul.htmlIt's a bit more expensive than the beginner Stuart engines but looks to compare in size to the Stuart 8. With a bit of care I'd like to think it's an achievable build. According to the English translation it is also equipped with a Gleitbahnfühung ! I'd really like an engine with a Gleitbahnfühung whatever one of those is Peter.
This steam saw is very interesting too...http://www.ts-modelldampfmaschinen.de/produktuebersicht/6-dampfmaschinen--steam-engine/432-dampfsaege.html
