Hello. My name is Davyboy. I have signed on with HMEM and MEM boards, so I recognize some of your members that post over here. It's been a long time since I've had anything worthy to contribute, so I mostly lurk in the background. Please allow me to lurk here as well. I have been a machinist for many years, now working on bigger stuff, up to 10,000 lbs. My home shop has 7x10 and 9x20 lathes, and a mill/drill machine. Most of my model toys are simple and easy, fun short term projects. I'm hoping to get some finger engines together for gifts this holiday season. I had a display at the local tractor and steam show recently. Here's a photo. Thank you to all who post on here, I sure enjoy watching, even if I don't chime in. Davyboy |

Hi and welcome to Madmodder Davyboy Impressive collection of engines :clap: , Did you make them all ? Any chance of a few close up shots of the engines :poke: Rob |

A warm welcome from me too Davy, I also have a 7x12 minilathe although mine as the longer bed, its a Sieg machine. I also have a 9x20 and for the bigger jobs, an 11x30 equivalent. Most of the work my machines have done is making parts or tool addons but I've completed a single cylinder steam engine which now adorns one of the shop shelves.... |

Thanks Gents, I built most of them myself. Purchased Mamod, Wilesco and PMR Peanut. A few photos of my toys. Wobblers and finger toys, my own designs, inspired by the talents of craftsmen like you. And yes, I spend some time making tools and plans for new projects, I have quite a long to-do list! DB |
