Today, through the letterbox dropped ME&W 4766, July 2025 bringing the sad news of the death of Brian Wood.

He had an obvious great enthusiasm for devising gear trains to produce threads of various pitches, which he was happy to share with others.

In my contacts with him, he was always approachable, helpful, and always prepared to “Go the extra mile” to find a solution to a particular problem.

His passing is a loss to model engineering, and I am sure that he will be missed by many.
