Hi Jeff,
The web site is:
http://members.surfeu.fi/animato/steamloco.html

He is a graphic designer and animator by profession so that the 
illustrations are first class.
For anyone new to this business such as myself the site is an excellent 
education. He works very fast but gets a lot of stuff done outside eg laser 
cutting of frames but on the other hand he doesn't use so many ready made 
castings.
The text is in good grammatical English which is strange to read these days; 
spelling is good too.
I didn't mention the address because I thought everyone here must know it.
