Thread: Toolco Lathes
16/01/2012 19:36:00
Hello,
 
I am thinking of buying a Chinese Toolco lathe. I would be grateful to hear from anyone who has experience of these lathes. And how do they compare to Warco, Chester or Arc Euro Trade?
 
Many thanks,
Mark

Hello Jak,
 
I see that 'Station Road Steam' is looking for an apprentice:

Might be worth investigating.
 
All the best in your career,

Thread: MG Magnette Automobile MM164

Hello Phil,

Many thanks for the information.

I will look into this - construction notes will be most helpful.

I am surprised that not more model engineers venture into building an automobile in between building a live-steam locomotive or traction engine.

Best wishes,

Mark

Hello Rob,

Thanks for the post.

I have only just received the drawings, so the build is at a very early stage. I will be pleased to post pictures as the chassis evolves.

I am quite pleased with the detail of the drawings. Construction notes would be helpful though. It looks to be a 1" scale - an attractive automobile, made principally from dural, steel, and brass.

I am thinking through at the moment the right commercially built engine to house and use in the engine bay (1 - 3.5 cc). It must be relatively slow running. Suggestions will be welcome.

Kind regards,

Mark

Hello,

I would be interested to hear from any model engineers who are familiar in scratch building metal model automobiles. I am currently building the MG Magnette from the drawings by G. H. Deason (http://www.myhobbystore.co.uk/product/17247/mg-magnette-mm164).

It seems there are not many model engineers who scratch build model automobiles.

Many thanks for looking.

Hello,

I am thinking of building a model car. The model I have in mind is the Auto Union 6L Type C (Drawing MM569 from Hobby Store). I wonder if anyone else has built this model? If so, I would be grateful to know how much detail is shown on the drawings.

Many thanks,

Mark

Thread: 2" Clayton Steam Wagon
16/10/2009 23:24:55
Hello,

I am new to this Forum, so I would like to say hello to all. I will be recently buying a partially built 2" Clayton Steam lorry. I am a little unfamiliar with steam wagons, my main focus has been on locomotives. Can anyone recommend a book that explains in detail the engineering of model steam wagons/lorries? Many thanks. Mark

Hello,
 
What is the  best thing to use for cleaning paintwork on a live steam locomotive? A car polish, perhaps?
 
Thanks,
Mark
