I am a professional modelmaker working to commission specialising in etched brass coaches. For my own modelmaking I model the SE&CR in the Edwardian to WW1 era with a passing interest up to 1939. I specialise in SE area Private Owner wagons and wrote the book published by Lightmoor four years ago. I hold post as HMRS Stewards for pre 1948 PO Wagons and the SE&CR and I am the Membership secretary for the South Eastern & Chatham Railway Society. I have been a member of the Orpington & District MRS since 1973.

Hi Robin
I thought it was about time I signed up. I did the search of my name on the site and found quite a few people had been name checking me, mostly about my book but also a few mentions of my resin mouldings. I'm still busy trying to finish coaches for customers though I don't yet know how to deliver them. It will probably wait until after travel restrictions are lifted as I usually like to deliver in person.
Best wishes John

Hi John, You might like to start a "workbench" topic in "Kitbuilding and Scratchbuilding" (here) and post occasional updates and photos of what you are doing.
Stay safe.
