@Erased_Citizen I must give mine an outing some time. It's been a shelf queen for far too long.

I wonder whether there are plans (#OSHW, or just forgotten in some #ModelEngineering magazine from bygone days - maybe George H. Thomas loves a cup?) for a burr coffee grinder somewhere.

Bon, il semble bien que je sois parti sur un projet de machine à vapeur modèle réduit 😁
C'est ce plan https://www.modelengineeringwebsite.com/Jowitt_engine_build.html , j'ai trouvé une paire de roues en fonte de la bonne dimension sur Ebay, il n'y a plus qu'à faire le reste !
(Pas tout de suite, d'abord c'est mise à jour de la fraiseuse)

Four years ago I had some fun with my model beam engine and a marble run.

So you've tried taking your bike on a train, but have you tried taking your train on a bike?

Picture from Thornes Park Miniature Railway, Wakefield UK, where one of their members brought their miniature loco to a running day in an unexpected way.

The 'Blowfly' steam loco I was building a few years ago, and sold as a working chassis, has just sold again; now with boiler parts.

I hope someone gets her running some day.

Just got back from the dawn ride:
1. I got rained on, which was actually quite nice once I stopped and took my glasses off.
2. I found a house with a front yard full of stacks of miniature railway tracks.

#BikeTooter & #Rain & #ModelEngineering makes for a nice start to the day (but it's summer, so I'm about to go to bed).

Just remembered the time a #ModelEngineering magazine misspelt 'brazed' and the next issue had a bunch of letters to the editor either offering or requesting "braised boiler fitting and vegetables" recipes.
