Hello
« on: May 11, 2018, 12:35:46 AM »
Hi Guys,
I jumped the gun and started posting but thought I would drop in here and do the intro thing.

My name is Warren and I live in sunny Melbourne, Australia.  :ROFL: Saying that cause it is a chilly 13 deg C and raining here today.

I have been stricken with this addiction called steam. I have always admired steam locomotives and stationary engines but have only become aware of the casting kits quite recently.

As such I have jumped in neck deep and purchased a Stuart #7 and #4 with reversing linkage kit.

Feel free to follow along my journey at attempting to master one of these little buggas. PS: get ready to be bombarded with questions... :atcomputer:

I have a modest garage/workshop fitted out with a Liang Dei 13x40" toolroom lathe and a modern but smallish asian milling machine fitted with DRO.

So,  lets get started.....  :)

Hi Warren, welcome to the forum.

 It's good to see another modeller from Melbourne join up.
