Engineering in Miniature

THE Magazine for Model Engineers

Launched in 1979, Engineering in Miniature has established a reputation for its quality of articles and drawings and is highly respected for its technical content.

Published monthly it features construction articles on all aspects of model engineering. These articles describe the construction of scale model locomotives, steam road vehicles, stationary, marine, petrol and hot air engines, clocks plus of course numerous model engineer workshop projects, tooling and machinery.

In the February edition of Engineering in Miniature we launch into a new year by hearing in detail about the challenges of maintaining miniature railway locomotives over the winter – 3.5 or 12.25-inch gauge, they are equally all-encompassing! Peter Malim reaches a milestone on his building of a 6-inch Foden lorry kit when he hangs the boiler; Roy Preston starts a new series taking an in-depth look at how injectors work; And Nick Feast introduces his 3.5-inch gauge Schools class project; Meanwhile Rich Wightman′s loco build advice series describes how novices should not be scared of making a boiler! And Edward Parrott continues his search for a future coal for when the caol runs out. All this and much more in the new issue.
