Wes's Current Meccano Projects
A page on the History of Meccano has been
created.
I have started a website on various Meccano Erector images that other people
have made and I like - take a look very nice!
- A model of a Microelectronic Component Fabrication Facility (FAB) plant. This
model is now complete, click here to view it.
- Rotating Base Ferris Wheel, based on prototype that was assembled in Battersea Pleasure
Park, London. This model was completed for the 2001 Melbourne
Meccano Club Exhibition, click
here to view it.
- A Miniature Giant Walking
Dragline.
- Functional Meccano Lathe. Based on the 1970 June & July Meccano Magazine Model.

the top of this page is a classic model. Click here if you want to see more photographs of
it and read a published article on it, 7 pages.

Meccanomen I have built a version of it. As a different theme I set myself the task
of building it in blue! 4 pages.

earth, sun and moon. Meccano makes an ideal medium for building an orrery, 3 pages.

Links to other Web sites
This site has joined the Meccano Web Ring.
Meccano enthusiasts will find it much easier to tour sites and to search for
information they are looking for using this ring. This is a far more effective
system than trying to maintain a list of links.
