I plan to attend, and will actually take engines to display this time. Looking forward to it already!

I will definitely be there. It seems characteristic of the midwest US bunch that we don't comment much on the shows we attend, but the inaugural show was a pleasure. A great venue with atmosphere and lots of familiar faces.  And I can commute. I have made a decision though that I have to have a new stable of engines (2 or 3 I would hope) before I exhibit again. I have a design on the board as we speak. Did I mention that I had retired and built a new shop? More on that later.

Congratulations on your retirement and new shop Tim!
It would be nice to see some photos of your latest projects and shop, you always seem to work on interesting things.

New website looks good.

Booked my hotel. Kinda like to make sure I have lodgings.

I’ll bring my measly two engines. Two PM Research engines so certainly won’t turn any heads. Every little helps though. I’ve seen continents drift faster than I build engines so doubt I’ll have anything else to show. Looking forward to it though.

Hi Stuart,
I remember being at the first NAMES show at the Yack arena in Wyandotte. I was having a conversation with a couple of fellows and the conversation got around to quantity and quality of models displayed. I remember saying that it doesn't matter what or how many you have made it's that you have made something with your hands and should be proud of what you've done. We might be at different levels but it's enjoying friends who share the same passion.

Thanks George, I appreciate that very much. I regretted not taking anything last year, so I’ll be glad to show something this year.
