Hi welcome to the forum. If you want to make somthing have a look on here.

http://www.steves-workshop.co.uk/steammodels/simpleoscil/simpleoscil.htm

I made one a few years ago and found it very satisfying and went on to make the boiler and then more engines.

Welcome to the forum.

Doing up a Lambretta or Vespa is at the top of my list of of projects that I would love to do. I am very jealous. I live in Australia and they are very rare and expensive down here.

Cheers, Paul.

Welcome to the Forum.

Where are you located?

It would be a good idea to find and jopin a model enginering club near to you.

You will find LOTS of help, advice and knowledge, on many subjects on here.

But a local club can provide social company and face to face help and even demonstration.
