Forest and Gallice

[seadragonfoundry]

I have resumed building this engine after a four year break, just wondering if anyone knows how many sets of castings Maury made of this engine, for the record mine is number eight.

Maury is still around.

Seadragon, thank you for the pictures. It looks like you are making some good progress.
I didn't really keep track of how many kits I sold, happy customers were more important than quantity of sales. It's going to be more than 10 and less than 100.

I have sold the patterns to Melvin Huyard who is in the process of having more kits available. My hope is he will have a web site up soon to show what he has available, it's more than the Forest 1888.
If you have any questions about building the Forest, don't hesitate to contact me.

Thanks,
maury

Where are these located? It would be nice to know as no-one here has an address in their icons. My guess is they are in Britland?[/QUOTE]

I wish the moderators would post the method of deleting a bad post.

I am in Australia, pretty certain Maury is in Texas , don’t know about the person who bought his patterns. I think your name describes you well.

Yes I think Maury's company name was a big give away as to where he is located - Lone Star Engine Works

Shipping any set of patterns from the US to UK would not really be viable but still cheaper than what is being asked for the Woodpecker ones
