| | Scale Model Member | Harrogate model Engineering and modelling exhibition 2008
Hi folks ....
If anyone is at a loss for something to do over the 9/10/11 May.
Then the 2008 Model Engineering and Modelling Exhibition will be held at the Gt Yorkshire showground Harrogate.
Superb models of boats , planes , steam, and model engineering all under 1 roof plus engineering equipment and goodies, trade stands etc etc.
A fantastic show if the previous years are anything to go by.   Sub. |

| Lovely engines there bunker, and nicely displayed too. I'll keep an eye out for those!
I was hoping to go to the show, the only problem apart from the long drive to get there is the amount of dosh I'll spend there if I do go.
I'm really after converting my Mill to cnc and Lester Caine will have a stand there, he's working on a cnc conversion kit for the Taig: Harrogate Model Engineering Show - Model Engineers Digital Workshop

| Not quite true, there were actually a good couple of thousand through the doors today!
It is actually a very good show with a lot of superb engineering exhibits on display. I would highly recommend it to anyone with an interest in Engineering modelling.

I thought it might be a tad busy 
Is there a floorplan for the exhibition on the net so I can get my bearings before I arrive?
Also what stand will you be on Bunk? Will you be around on the saturday too?

| For my sins I have volounteered to be there all through the show. With an hour and a quarter at each end it makes a long day but very worthwhile and a lot of enjoyment. I will post a floor plan later after the missis has scanned it!!
I will be on the Kirklees stand but if not around any one of the members there will know where I am skiving!
