Hi All
« on: November 24, 2010, 01:54:14 PM »
Hi everyone. My name is Owen from the west coast of Canada. I like to think of myself as a model engineer, that is until I see other people's work and then I realize I'm just another newbie. I spend most of my time in the shop working on my locomotive or tools to make parts for my loco so don't expect many posts.

Hi Owen  :wave:

Welcome to the collective :borg:

We are all still newbies in some fashion or another. Don't worry about it

How about pictures of your loco? Or threads about the tools you build to make the parts?

Hi Owen  :thumbup:


Damn! He beat me to it again.... Welcome to the collective  :borg:  :thumbup:


Newbie... We all are.... Even the most hardened of engineers must learn something new now and again? 

Personally, only 3 years in with the machines.... 30+ in destroying and trying to fix anything I could get my hand on  :thumbup:   :lol:



Have fun, as Eric said post some pic's of your stuff when you can, always interested  :beer:

Hi Owen

Welcome to MadModder Owen. Glad to see another Canuck in here. Don't worry about some of the fantastic things that you will see on this forum and others. Remember that the builders all came out of the womb equal and have acquired their skill since so it is a level playing field. It is what ever you want to make it. If you have any questions just ask as their is always someone around to answer or at least give an opinion.  :D :D

Cheers  :beer:
