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:

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.
Regards,
Ray.
