| 168 forum posts 26 photos | It''s good to see that some archive magazines are now on the website. I see you have Model Mechanics, I was interested in finding Model Mechanics issues from 1954. Is this the same magazine and where would I find these much older issues, the internet has not revealed anything to me of that vintage.
Thanks

These are Model Mechanics from the 1980s.
I don't have any from that dar back.
Not sure if they are our copyright either.
We do own the Model Maker series and I hope to put some of them up.

Is there a problem with the site accessing the back issues of Model Mechanics etc?
I'm struggling to find the site as all I get is 'error not found'
I'm also looking for an article around december 1999 or 2000 on spark errosion. Two articles were published one for the basic machine and power supply. and the other on wire errosion using the same power pack. I foolishly loned the issue with the power pack details and it has never ben returned. Any help would be gratefully recieved. Keep up the good work you and the rest of the staff undertake. It is sad that creative people who write articles are critised for 'apparent safety' when most of the time common sense would indicate that skill and familiarity with your own workshop will dictate the way a job is best tackled. Those who are keen to critisise should show the correct method if one exists and explain in detail how some of the excelent models and process be performed in a hobby environment. Hope you have fully recovered and you are fit to produce lots of swarf.
Regards P Hodkinson

 1946 forum posts 179 photos | The Model Mechanics seem to have disappeared. Have they gone the way of many other useful things from the site? Will we have to pay to access these as well in future? Terry |

| 180 forum posts | Yup, they`ve definitely gone just like a lot of other things that were in the archive. Probably some copyright hiccup !!

| 180 forum posts | Forgot to add that those blasted adverts on the RH side are overlapping the posts AGAIN. Pity they couldnt disappear instead of the really useful items. |

Model Mechanics will go back up.
For some reason the original covers were put up in black and white.
I need to dig them out and replace with colour images.
