Hi
I have been an occasional guest here for a while so it is time to stop peeping over the fence and climb in<G>
I am a recently retired engineer/designer with 40 years of experience working in some of the design consultancies around Cambridge England. I started out back in 1961 by serving a a 5 year scientific instrument making apprenticship at the Cambridge Instrument Company but I have actually spent most of my life on the drawing board and later in front of a CAD terminal. I have always made things eversince I could walk and mostly built model aeroplanes in my youth (and dottage). I am currently doing the detail design of a 2ft narrow gauge loco for the Lynton & Barnstaple railway in Devon, recreating the Baldwin 2-4-2T LYN that ran on the line from 1898 until it was cutup in 1935.
I have a website where most of my interests are documented including a design log for the loco.
