Hello from Southwest of Germany
« on: December 29, 2024, 07:18:33 PM »
Hello together,

I´m Ekkehard from southwest of Germany.
After school I started an education as precision engineer, but in my entire professional life I never worked in this area. Instead, I ended up in IT.
But I never lost my interest for mechanics, and over the years I build up a small but fine tool shop (I will show some pictures soon).
My main area is steam engines, 1 (!) ship model (working on it since ~16 years), electronics and repairing almost everything what got broken.

Greetings and Happy New Year
Ekkehard

Roger,

I´m located in Karlsruhe area close to highway A5, but far enough away to not hear the traffic.

Regards
Ekkehard
