Hello All,
Back in my High School days we had a great industrial arts building. Hot metals, cold metals,construction, drafting, electrical, woodworking.... I had a wonderful time learning to make tool boxes, meat tenderizer, ball pean hammer, knives, belt buckles etc... I even bought a plan set for Gary Conley's 1/4 scale V-8 engine. I never did get a chance to build it.
In the military I bought Garys engine in kit form. I put that together and bought a 1/4 scale '34 ford to put it in. Well with other priorities I sold this.
I bought the complete set of SIC a number of years back, great magazine. I am now ready to start building an engine. Well, after I purchase a lathe.... my Unimat, I got from my grandfather, is great for turning wood but I think it is time to upgrade.
I look forward to learning on this site and will hopfully be able to contribute.
Thank you
Dennis
