Thanks for the replies guys and all the information on the shay I like the photos I have managed to track down a book in Scotland.
I know the speed is slow and looks to be a satisfying moment and I will also track down the Redding club as I live within 5 miles of Reading.
I have plenty of time to build as I am 63 years old and disabled so I recon I have a good 30 years
Again thanks for your help Kevin
