Canterbury and District Model Engineering Society was formed in 1972 to provide for the interests of local model engineers. We have around 70 members who come from all walks of life. Whilst a few are professional engineers, most are amateurs who work at home in their spare time to produce miniature locomotives, traction engines, stationary steam engines and the like.
This year the machinery specialists will once again be on hand to give advice on all aspects of machining. Whether it be turning, boring, milling to drilling, talk to the experts on our stand. As usual, the buying power of Greenwood Tools Ltd will ensure that most tools will be at very special offer prices, and spare inserts will be available in abundance

The Tiverton & District Model Engineers’ Society is a small model engineering club with approximately 30 members, and is a member of the Southern Federation of Model Engineering Societies. The inaugural meeting was held on 7th February 1975 at Blundell’s School in Tiverton. A track was established in the school grounds, but due to developments at the school, the club was forced to remove its track in 1987. The club became a limited liability company in 1996, and in 1998 was able to purchase a piece of land, approximately an acre, on Worthy Moor. Over the subsequent 10 years, a new dual gauge raised track was built on the site
