September 2024 Meeting

Saturday 7 September 2024
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 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 Page Three Models Secretary’s Challenge

This Challenge is the conclusion of a trilogy started by Chris Fry in September 2008 and continued by Brian Leach in January 2020, with a model from the Page 1 and Page 2 parts list from the 1970s instruction manual respectively.

The new Challenge, also from Brian, is to build any model from parts 146 to 235f only which appear on page 3 of the 1970s parts list. When we say page 3, we mean the back page of the manuals of that era.

You can use standard bolts and nuts (included in the large bossed parts and the Pivot Bolt), but no long bolts or washers.
