Hello Everybody my real name is Bob McCOY or just call me BanjoPlayer. Yes I really do play a banjo been playing since Was 14. That's enough of that. lets get to the real nuts and bolts. My love is live steam I've built kozo 040 3 1/2 gage Live Steam Engine 3/4 scale I got all the entire bottom built she was a biuite but had a friend that really wanted it so I sold it to him to finish and run. Anyway I've got all kinds of engines stationary all sizes. Than I got into all kinds of hot air engines I've built. I basically build by plans. I've got kits to machine and build that's down the line. And plans I've collecting and buying plans for over 25 years. Not bragging I you guys might find something you use. Now to start a new subject. My life my mom and my dad and I started a toy train business in 1955 we build a train that represented a Lionel train it was so good people would take it outside and leave them them sell them for originals anyway from. 1955 till two years ago we made 9 different engines 160 different cars our trains went nation wide and world wide. Anybody that is in trains knows us. Now if you want to if you want to see what they look like get on your phone or computer and type mcCoy toy trains and you will see them. Or go to EBay say the same thing. and you will see them. My dad nor I knew nothing about running a lathe or a mill but we kept doing it over and over and in 70 years. And 31/2 acres of shops and about every kind of machine you can name we owned. and I operated. And I still got all 10 fingers. And I'm 77 years young. Anyway I want you all to know ill be glad to go on with my stories. But I want to follow all your builds. And you know something I learned your never to old to learn and thank you and I can't wait to get to know you all.
