I thought it was about time I introduced myself. I tried to write asn introductory post yesterday but was unable to submit as I had inadverently included something which the system desided was spam!!! Peerhaps the inclusion of machine manucafturer's names was the cause. So here we go again.
I'm a newly retired chemist with some home workshop experience living in the English Midlands.
My workshop (converted garage) contains a 13x40 geared lathe, a VMC, a small 90 scale lathe and a 6x4 bandsaw, as well as various other bits and pieces. My tooling collection owes a lot to an interest in 4x4 vehicles.
My interest is in live steam horizontal mill engines. I am currently working on the design of suitable valve gear for small engines. (rotary rather than slide valves.
I joined because I have admired the wide range of topics covered here.
