June 2021 Meeting
Report from our Autumn 2021 Newsletter
Saturday 12 June 2021
Falconwood Community Centre
Falconwood
This was one of our informal quarterly meetings where our members showed off their latest Meccano creations.
At around 2:00pm we had our annual general 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 Floating Models Secretary’s Challenge
This Challenge came from Richard Marsden and it’s something he suggested a few years earlier, but I put it on the back burner.
It was to build a model that can float in water. Members could only use standard Meccano — no plastic parts to aid buoyancy!
