Comments: Hi Timothy.
When I found you Web site I though that I had entered the Ali-Baba cavern.
Although I am 65 and do not model with Meccano on a regular basis, I was a fanatic user from age 6 to 29. I still have a fairly good collection of parts that surpass a No 10 set except for the large flanged rings 167b.
As an engineer, close to retirement I now have some spare time to browse through all the literature that you provide on your site.
As a fanatic 3D modeler with the SketchUp program, I envision the possibility of modelling Meccano parts in 3D and, eventually try to assemble virtual models on my computer. I will not be the same as modelling with the real thing but it will use less space, be probably a bit faster and the parts will always be available whatever the required amount.
A big thank you for this site.
Jean

Comments: I love your models and thanks for putting a link to some of my models (Face Book!). I'm struggling with the Ball Maize of yours, I will keep trying for a while, I don't like giving up. Isn't Meccano a brilliant hobby!
Many thanks,
Bob Duck

Comments: Hi Timothy, I like your website and models, especially the Meccano Ball Maze, I'm attempting this at the moment, but I only have the one picture and two very small ones. I have started to build the tilting ball tray, but may need a little more information, if you don't mind! Can you give any more info on the Remote Control? I may try and make one, if this is possible. I am a member of the New Zealand Site and many of my models are on there, including videos, near the end. We used to do Model Railway Shows etc, but are getting a bit old for that now. Thanks again for inspiring me!! Hope you're both OK, my wife is a singer too! She's in the local Church Choir. Bye for Now, Bob

Comments: Hello, On behalf of Dutchman Anhm Kop I try to find John Griffiths. A long time ago they were pen-palls via the Meccano Guild and Anhm is trying to renew the contact. On your website there's a John Griffiths. As I cannot send him a message, could you please ask him if he remembers Dutchman Anhm Kop and if he is interested in renewing the contact?
In your guestbook a John Griffiths has been seen.

Comments: Secretary MWT Meccano Club. Convention Easter 19 I have made a series of aircraft models from 0 through 9 sets to demonstrate the progressive nature of Meccano sets back then. I like the Cargoplane set 8 .13 that looks like a Hercules. My instuctions book is missing the 2nd page of instructions. Looking for it. Greetings Tim. Robin.
