Eltham United Reformed Church
Eltham
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 Musical Instruments Secretary’s Challenge
This Challenge was an idea that came from Chris Fry (the list from whom our Secretary is slowly working through — he’s given us enough ideas to last a couple of years!). It was to build a musical instrument in Meccano, either a non-practical copy of a recognisable instrument, or one that actually can play a tune.
