Hi from Barcelona

[bernimodels]

Hi there!

It's my first post in this amazing forum, although I have been learning already a lot from you guys for a while now.

I've been building scale model cars since 1998, starting at a very basic level and progressing over the years. Please feel free to visit my website www.bernimodels.com.
Last year I decided to start with a new project to build a scale F1 car (1:3) with a working V8 engine... which brough me to this forum. In half a year or so I have build two single cylinders test engines which you will be able to see on my website.

I am also interested in knowing people from my area that shares the same hobby.

Cheers,
Bernat

Our records show about a dozen members in Spain.
this is one of the reasons it is good and important to fill in the location block.

Bernat, Looks like you do some great work.

There is a large and active community of home shop machinists in the Barcelona area, and we tend to meet for a chat and to show off our work once every 4-5 months or so. With a moderator's permission, I'd be happy to post a link to the Spanish forum where we hang out and discuss this sort of thing.

Salut

Thanks for that, Arnold.

The forum is metalaficion.com, and here are some photos from one of the group meetings in the Barcelona area http://foro.metalaficion.com/index.php/topic,5038.msg65806.html#msg65806. Take a close look, you might even recognize some familiar faces. We are trying to organize the next meeting for the 28th of July http://foro.metalaficion.com/index.php/topic,8722.0.html. Hope to see you there.

Although the site is obviously in Spanish, I invite any interested parties to swing by and have a look.

Josh I generally do not encourage redundant posts. but in this case a exception is in order. Please post a thread in the link area for future reference so anyone looking for a club in Bacelona area can find it also for folks looking for a Spanish language Model Engineering forum
Thanks
