Hi, I'm Miraine.
I'm a serial supporter-of-other-people's-projects, which is rewarding in its own way, but discussion with a friend recently highlighted that I really do need to do my own thing from time to time. Cue some pondering as to exactly what "my own thing" actually is.
Anyway, thanks to some nostalgia from childhood trips to steam railways and fairs, and a general desire to hone my workshop skills (I'll need to gain some before I hone them, though), I've decided that thing is to build a steam engine.
I've absolutely no idea what type yet, and found this site whilst looking for ideas for the boiler, since that seemed a reasonable start point.
