A big warm welcome, Dan, from St Thomas in the US Virgin Islands.  This forum is a goldmine of information.  When I first joined a little  over a month ago I didn't know a Mamod from a Mocha!

Now I have just completed my first steam boat.

Hi Trog, welcome from Gloucestershire.

SEL engines are great fun, and dont be embarrassed to ask the most basic seeming of questions. Even the most expert (of which I am not one   ) are tripped up sometimes

Ive not seen anyone being bitten for asking basics.

Besides most topics vere    after about a page anyway- its all good fun

Good Morning Trog, from a bright & breezy Derbyshire!

I love my little SEL`s.
They are happy little engines.
