New member from Canada
« on: July 24, 2026, 06:24:28 pm »
Dropping in to say 'Hi'.
I have a shop full of machines, a modicum of ability and I'm looking for a new challenge. I bought a used Centaur engine casting kit that has never been machined. Likely far too complicated a model to start with so perhaps a Webster IC is my first go.
Anyway, that's me :)

Welcome to the Forum  :ThumbsUp:  :ThumbsUp:

There are plenty of members on here who can help with a Webster build. I think a few Centaurs have been built as well.

David you are in a lovely part of the country. I lived in Vancouver for 35 years and at one point, worked on the tugboats and roamed all up and down the coast, from Alaska to Seattle.

Cheers

My ultimate goal would be to build a 1/12 scale wooden steam launch. Suffice it to say that's a ways away at the moment!
