Hi. Newcomer from Newcastle
« on: March 02, 2010, 08:18:36 AM »
Hello.
I am a novice who has taken up model engineering in retirement.

I think that I will learn a lot from the posts of this forum and I will try to contribute what I can!

Hi Ferrum, welcome to the group, and don't be afraid to ask, the chaps here need an excuse to waffle on a bit  :lol:

Hi there Ron :wave: welcome to the club.

Like the others have said, we are all novices, some are a little less novice, but there's not one of us who knows it all, we are all learning.


Welcome aboard the good ship Madmodder

Ron

Welcome to MadModder. We certainly hope that we can help with the learning process now that you have retired. If you have any questions, ask away as there is always someone around to give and answer or at least an opinion. While  :coffee: in these forums you will no doubt get  :proj: for which there is no known cure except to start building it.  :D :D

Cheers  :beer:
