Hello all,
Old guy here from Pennsylvania, U.S. with a new interest in model engines...not gonna lie, I'm completely green (unless it's a small block chevy). I appreciate the chance to learn from the experience that I've seen thus far in the threads. Alot of my questions have been answered just by tooling around the forum.

I was recently gifted one of the blue Chinese H&M engines, mixed emotions at this point, still working out the kinks. But damn, I'm hooked. And like I said earlier, I've gleaned much on the subject from your posts. Thanks again to be a part of the community.

Welcome Gunny, glad to have you in the group.
This is an adictive hobby for sure.
I have known many who have been at it much of their lives.
My dad started building model engines when he retired, and ended up building 38 engines.
I was very busy with life until about 14 years ago, when I got an opportunity to start attempting to design/machine and build model engines.
It took me a few years, but I finally got the hang of it.
I have a very keen interest in the foundry side of the hobby as well.
Grab an engine project and lets get started.

Welcome Gunny! My interests are mainly machining rather than models, but I find plenty of info here.

I’m in the Harrisburg area, where are you located?
