18th February, Club Night  –  Metal Casting Practice – The personal experience of metal casting by our very own Dan Cutting.   MSRVS has changed over the years. The early members mostly built their own engines and club meetings had demonstrations of individuals progress on a current build. Nowadays, most new members buy new or second hand engines and the club concentrates more on Steam Up gatherings. Our February meeting will feature one of most established members, who still does build his own engines, Mr Dan Cutting, who will talk on his own experiences and techniques of metal casting. Various other members have been seen bringing jars of metal swarf and filings for Dan to use for casting into vital components for his models. Brass and Bronze is usual, but Dan can also cast in iron! Should be a good talk to take us back to those earlier club days, and the pioneers who first built steam engines.
