Hi to everyone on here.
Thanks to David (stilldrillin) he has invited me to this forum and im happy to see at least two familiar names.
I bought my first lathe about 4 months ago and now hitting a huge learning curve.
my main interest is in live steam locos and im in the process of building my first and at the same time learning to turn out a bit of metal.
It has been great fun so far but I still have a long way to go.

Cheers Graham in Brisbane Australia

Hi Graham,

A big welcome. :wave: :wave: :wave:

Everyone should have a project to do, whether large (as in your case) or small.

I am sure the lads on here would love to help you on your journey of learning that faces you. :zap:

Hi Graham

Welome aboard, pleased that you into Locos, one or two of us have an interest in locos so you're in good company,  :borg: you may have read my Project on building a 2-4-0, what loco are you building ?. When you get yourselfe sorted some pics would be nice. Building a loco is a bit of a long haull I've been at it on and off now for about 18 months, its nice from time to time to do something else for a little while.  :proj:

The main thing is to keep going back to it as you'll get it finished eventualy, one guy at our club spent 10 years building a 5" gauge Dutchess now that's a real beast of a loco.

If I can help in any way all you have to do is ask

The important thing is to have fun

Cheers
