[modeleng] Re: Your main interests

Hi Al
Like all forms of steam transport rail or not. Building at the moment is 
raod traction engine but with alot of tooling thrown in to aid the process. 
Latest tooling is conversion of mill to cnc then a router table. Should help 
to make the bits easier and while sitting in the house at the computer 
drawing them I cannot be accused by the wife of being in the workshop all 
the time....thats my logic anyway!!!!

Shame about Modelworks but it was to be expexted. When the price jumped 
overnight from five to fourteen grand for one of the models it was obviuos 
they had cocked up somewhere. I know someone who knows someone who built one 
a couple of years ago.....nothing fitted and all parts needed machining or 
at least severe fettling to fit.
