Good Evening,
I have noticed that I have not posted a welcome message in this thread. I would like to correct that.
Hello,
My name is Dave. I go by the handle "steamer".
My background is Mechanical Engineering. My real passion is steam and all things mechanical.
I have much admired the work of others here on this board for some years now. It's a great place. I enjoy it greatly. I have been "turning cranks" for quite a few years now, and I have a fairly complete shop, albiet a bit on the cramped side.
I have built quite a few steam engines including one for my boat. I have had a bit of experience operating the larger stuff in marine settings at a museum
Thanks for having me here!
Warm Regards,
Dave
