    new to site

    Hi
    thank you for accepting me on this site. I stumbled across this site via Pinterest and have found the items on here of great interest. I am a keen model engineer and have several projects under construction or completed and to support these I have set up a web site to follow the progress. I hope this will be of help to some and of interest to others. www.modelengineeringworkshop.co.uk and thank you for taking the time to post your projects on this site.
    This is not a home made tool but might be of interest Video of my Sweet Pea loco first time steaming

    Hi Jon
    Great web site.
    I have a 3" scale Foden under construction and a 1" Minnie traction engine which just requires painting. I am currently making a roller so I can bend some brass angle for the Foden cab and a set of bead rollers to help with the water tank for the same model.

    Hi thehomeengineer,

    I know I am five plus years late on congratulating you for finishing your Sweet Pea locomotive but thank you for posting on YouTube and at HMT. Great to see the your loco construction. Please post more at HMT.

    Regards,
    Paul Jones
