Meeting Information
Meetings are normally held at 2 pm on the third Sunday of the Month. Meeting locations will vary and be announced as soon as available. (No meeting in August.) Visitors and guests are always welcome! Regular meetings consist of a business meeting followed by a clinic or seminar. We work hard to provide you with the best presentations available, often the same clinics found at national and regional conventions. You can miss a lot if you miss a meeting! Also available at our meetings are our video library, a "show-and-tell" table, and, generally, a contest. Availability of these items will vary when a meeting is held at a remote location or special event.
Of course, the most important part of the meetings is the opportunity to get together with your fellow modelers. If you have a question or problem, there's an excellent chance that someone in the group will have the solution! In fact, you'll probably get several solutions to chose from!
September Meeting
Repowering and Upgrading Brass Engines
With the advent of excellent running, highly detailed plastic steam engines in the last 10 years or so, many brass items are lounging in display cases or in boxes in a dusty corner of the basement. If this sounds familiar come to the September meeting and learn what Bruce Knapp does to upgrade these old pieces for reliable performance. Bruce will show us how to upgrade these engines using modern can motors to replace the old open frame motors. Even if you don’t have a brass steam engine lying around you will learn something new.
This month's contest will be Make IT Cheap (1-3-5 Dollar ).
See YOU at the next meeting!
Sunday September 19th., 2PM
