    Belated Greetings and Introduction From Mississippi

    Oh I know Corinth well. I'm south of Jackson in Florence. When I was a kid we used to go see DR. Biggers (sp) for our family dentist.

    'TUBAL CAIN'

    I am guessing that you are not a fan of Myfordboy? I am curious as to why? I am not trained in the arts that he does. As I said i also don't watch him much, prefer those that speak more. But I am curious as to why you don't like him.

    Soft copper tubing?

    For bending pipe I've always heard of filling with sand capping both ends and bending. I have not used this though on small pipe below about 1 inch myself, so I can't day how it would work although I've no reason to suspect it would not. Kenny

    Bouch's workshop - 1.5 x 3.5 horizontal steam engine

    Oh nice. Besides trying to build live steam, eventual goal 7.5 inch. I do HO based on South East PA. Reading and Pennsylvania Railroad. This is a 12x32 layout. I f u had more folding money and room i would love to do Proto 48 O scale. I think that is so neat and full of detail. Kenny

    Bouch's workshop - 1.5 x 3.5 horizontal steam engine

    Wonderful read. I really enjoyed your write up and glad you kept going with this and not stopped this thread early on. What is the story with the Boston and Maine O scale car? Do you have a layout? I build HO trains but do Lionel at Christmas.

    Welding a copper boiler?

    I don't think I would do that. Being that you are not the welder on this you really are not a hundred percent informed on the weld depth. You could grind out the strength of the weld and not realize it. If it is that unsightly what about a boiler jacket? Kenny

    Get a kit as a first project?

I bought it in 03 and with a little time learning and tool gathering i was able to get it running correctly. If I had to do it again i would have bought the little machine shop wobbler.

    'TUBAL CAIN'

    What about Keith Appleton. I enjoy his model engineering videos a lot. I guess that is why I still like Tubal Cain because that is one of his focus. Most of those other guys that you mention that I am familiar with rarely dabble with true model engineering as I like it.

    'TUBAL CAIN'

    I like MyFordBoy but really wish he would talk in his videos. There are times i would like more explanation than what he does with the sub titles. There fore i don't watch him as much as others.
