Brand New to the Hobby
« on: April 28, 2013, 08:11:59 am »

Hi all.


I live up in Thirsk, North Yorkshire. For years I have pondered building a model coaster. Reading loads at the moment, including articles on this great forum. I am checking what equipment / tools I need and also pondering my current skills and ability, not to mention patience.   :-))


So I will keep reading and in the very near future will take the plunge.

Hi Kev,
 
Welcome to the madhouse  %%
 
The model engineering exhibition will be on at Harrogate 10th, 11th & 12th May.
 
Details here: http://www.theharrogateshow.com/
 
If you're free that weekend, pay a visit, you will meet modellers of all disciplines - including Model Boats ! ...and there'll be plenty model boats on display to whet your appetite.
