Hello, glad to be part of your forum
« on: July 15, 2018, 06:49:07 PM »
Hi, my name is John. I live in upstate New York. A few years ago I retired from the bricklayers union.I finally have the time and resources to set up a small shop in my garage.  I have completed two steam engines (from Stuart castings) and a Jan Ridders "Puppy" engine. I am very pleased with the way they turned out. I look forward to learning from and possibly adding to this forum. Thanks again for letting me join. John

Hi and welcome John. I hope you will find a home here on MEM. Once you get settled in, maybe we can see some pictures of your engine and shop set-up. Glad to have you aboard.

Hi John!


Welcome from another upstater!  If you haven't been there, check out the Pageant of Steam down in Canandaigua in a few weeks, great show with all kinds of engines, lots of running equipment.
