Model Engineer - 22.12.2017

The Model Engineer magazine is an almost limitless source of construction articles and techniques in building railway models, clocks, jigs, gear cutting, workshop projects, cnc machining, metalworking, lathe and milling techniques and the making of tools.

*** Julie Williams takes us on a conducted tour around the Lowestoft Model Exhibition (‘LOWMEX’) which appears to cover a rather wider range of models than the usual exhibition. Peter Targett adapts his recently published dynamometer design to make a weighbridge for weighing locomotive axles. Martin Gearing begins his series on the Model Engineer Vertical Boiler by giving us an overview of what is to come. ***
