I’m 68 years old coming 18 been an R&D engineer most of my working life and love making things out of things you would usually throw away!
I play with things that fly, ground and water vehicles plus I have an active interest in design of things that save energy such as Water heating, wind power and LED lighting applications. I also play guitar and am learning a bit of piano and have recently started painting with Acrylics, as you might guess I don’t get bored!!! In fact it’s good therapy for my Fibromyalgia, I’ve had it a while now, been on some pretty strong drugs for the pain but nothing helped - off them all now and feeling very much better! Looking forward to contributing and picking a few brains

Hi DarrellW, Welcome to the forum too :thumbsup:

I`m a new member also and have been made very welcome already - Other members have helped me a lot :biggrin1:

I`m an ex- Aerospace Fitter Turner / Quality Engineer and had a small Property maintenance business which I retired from in 2010
I share a few of your interests, Guitar (Acoustic) & Painting with water colours and I also like Golf. I too try to have as low a carbon impact as possible.
My health gripe is Diabetes but its much improved since I lost weight recently and I stick to a low carb diet.
I hope to be able to fly my E-flite Blade 400 Helicopter by the end of this year, I`ve just bought the Clearview Flight Sim which Is a big help,

All the best,

Blade 400 (Derek)
