Hello.

Where do I start? Well, I'm not a model engineer, but I do like playing with metalwork.

I'm an electrician by trade, and in my spare time I make knives.

I'm 'self taught' by way of many broken tools and a lot of wasted materials.

Quite often I've googled things I need to know, and this place has often given me answers. Thank you!

Thought it was about time I signed up and hopefully learn a bit more.

Ian.

Greetings Ian, Welcome, I sure you will find the ME forum interesting.

Do you make any specific things, types of models?

What part of Norfolk do you live in?

regards

Brian B

Hello Brian.

I pretty much stick to making knives, although I do tinker with other bits and pieces.

Here's a few random examples.

Cheers,

Ian.

Very nice. Welcome to the forum. I am sure your workshop will expand in time to cover other forms of model making. It is just a fact of life.

Welcome!

You are not the only model engineer in Norfolkm by a long way!

There is an active club in KIngs Lynn, and no doubt in other places.

The Forum is a HUGE fount of knowledge.
