The Pocket Meccano Set X N Secretary’s Challenge

This Challenge came from Chris Fry. He called it ‘Pocket Meccano Set X N’ — build a model using only parts from the Pocket Meccano set parts list, but use as many of the included parts as you like.

In 2006 we ran the Pocket Meccano Challenge, but using the contents of a single set. There were six entries then — we did better this time!

The complete list of parts is as follows (the quantities are for information only — members could use any quantity of the parts):
