I have relocated to Doha, Qatar (near Saudi), and of course had to
leave my lathe , mill and 20% completed 1/4 scale traction engine
behind, and I am missing it. I am seeking ideas for a project that
would be possible out here. No model engineer supplies, 20" RSJs are
easy to find but 1/4" silver steel possibly not. So it needs to be
something not too heavy, where I can get most or all the supplies in
one hit when back in the UK. A clock sounds good, can anybody
recommend a good starter clock, kit suppliers, web sites? I want to
'make' it, not assemble a kit of machined parts. A mini lathe may be
on the cards, so turning is OK, and probably can do simple dividing
using excell and paper strips around the chuck. What I do have is
time!
Any ideas welcome!
