I reckon there's a market for machines like that!

Hi Neil, Now that's a great idea. I will ask Keith if he's ready to start production. A stand at next year's G Rail Show or even the 16mm National Show! Watch out .. we are doing Roundhouse locos next!

Love it.
I take it that the "machine" has been constructed from the now made in France Meccano?

Hi Tony, I guess you are right. We shall have to ask Keith. He made this amazing machine just for this video. He comes up with brilliant ideas for his Thomas videos it's always great fun to go over and film them.

Hi, Sorry about that. Try this again. http://youtu.be/SSzvXv7XH14
 
Well, whatever the problem was (and it affected videos I'd previously watched without problems and embedded videos) clearing ALL my past history seems to have solved it (although some people suggest it will only be temporary). However, a great video, and that machine certainly beats 3D printing!

Hi, Hope everything is OK now. Well ...3D printing... I wonder what Keith could come up with if he gets a 3D printer? Anyway, thanks for the great comment a glad you are now able to watch.
 
Most of the Meccano used in the machine is around 40 years old and was manufactured in the Meccano factory in Binns Road, Liverpool.
The story may have been my idea but it was bought to life by the brilliance of the Pine Tree Junction Film Unit.

Well there you go then. Thanks Keith for putting us right on the Meccano machine. It looks as though it was made yesterday!
