Hello to all, I have been reading and looking since coming across this site by accident and have become fascinated with the model engines and the work folks do with them. I would like to try my hand at building one of these and needless to say, I am a rank beginner.
After looking at many designs, the Gerry’s Beam engine is very attractive to me but the question is, am I being unrealistic with this as a first try?
Many years past, I did some basic gunsmithing and built some reloading tools such as swaging dies for .224 and .357 bullets. I have a small knee end mill with DRO and a Rockwell 10” lathe plus an 8” rotary table and an index head.
Thanks for your comments and suggestions. Ted
