This was one of our informal quarterly meetings where our members showed off their latest Meccano creations.
At around 2:00pm we had a short committee meeting, followed by the Model Tour in which members were invited to give a short talk about their models — in particular their entries for the Secretary’s Challenge!
The Something Else Secretary’s Challenge
This Challenge was to take a Meccano set that has instructions for only one or two models, and build something else with it. The new model couldn’t be of the same type.
For example, members might have used one of the tinned robots, dismantled it and built something non-robotic with it, or taken the Red Arrows aeroplane and built something other than a plane with it.
