Hello - new to the forum. Have always been interested in model engines. Retired mechanical engineer but always hands-on otherwise. Jack of all trades, master of none as the saying goes. Metalworking and machining have always been an interest. Bought a small Craftsman 101 lathe 25 yrs ago with intent to start on model engines -just getting to it now. Have small benchtop mill. Did engineering apprenticeship at Gleason Works that included a lot of time in the shop. Amateur radio and electronics have taken some time. Help out at Antique Wireless Association Communications Technolgies Museum where much of the old gear is more mechanical than electronic.

Welcome from Essex UK Steve,  I hope you enjoy the forum and it'll be great to see your builds ........what are thinking of making?

Welcome Steve-

Glad to have you here.

Edit:
I had a professor one time who gave out the following advice (they were referencing term papers, but it applies to model engines too).
Professor asking the class:  "Do you know the best way to finish a project ?...............To  S T A R T  the project."

ie: you have to start an engine build in order to finish it.

Welcome Steve!  I am also in Rochester, west side in the town of North Chili. I was at Kodak for 30 years, never got a chance to see the inside of Gleason Works but drove past often.
