Do people scratch build. The reason I ask as I have just found this small pile of bits and pieces of information on a Robson Horizontal Deisel Engine.

If so they will go to anyone interested (Not sure if this should go into the for sale section). I will not sell them as it would be FTAGH

Hi Derek,

Several of the models I have built were from stock materials, and some from my own drawings. I also get inspiration from other builds or models and adapt them to the equipment and materials I have. Diesel engines is not my main interest though.
